High pressure brings sunshine Tuesday ahead of late week rain, thunder chances 

It’ll be a gorgeous, sun-filled Tuesday thanks to high pressure settling in over the Great Lakes. Look for highs back in the 80s for most with some slightly cooler readings near the Minnesota, Iowa border. 

Wednesday will start out with sunshine and will be another pretty nice day for eastern Minnesota. High temps will again be back in the 80s and dew points will tick up slightly, back into the low 60s in western Minnesota. 

Clouds will increase to the west Wednesday with some showers, thunder possible late in the day and evening in western Minnesota. We’ll see at least widely scattered showers and thunderstorms Wednesday night into Thursday move across the state. 

Chances of at least spotty showers and thunder linger into Friday and Saturday. Total rainfall through Friday could be decent for some areas, especially in western Minnesota.

All the while, temperatures will remain mostly above normal through the rest of this week into the weekend. There are some indications that next week could be heating up.
