Weather and Climate News

The heat and humidity Minnesota has seen so much of June returns Wednesday and includes a chance for severe weather, but not much rain along with it.
After a brief taste of cooler temperatures, the heat that has been so prevalent this June returns and brings a severe weather risk along with it.
Following another brisk morning Tuesday, temperatures warm quickly across Minnesota, with hot weather returning Wednesday. The same pattern that funnels in the heat also returns rain to the state along with a severe storm risk.
Minnesota began Tuesday cold enough for a couple spots of frost near the northern border, but temperatures rebound into the 70s for most of the state by the afternoon.
Following Sunday’s storm, temperatures turned much cooler, but the heat is already on its way back, with 90s back again by Wednesday.
Monday will be the coolest day Minnesota has seen all of June, but it is short-lived. Hot weather cranks back up by midweek, and another round of showers and storms is likely.
Minnesota sees another day of below average temperatures, with most of the state seeing highs only in the 60s.
Minnesota gets much-needed rain — but needs more to break drought
Farmers and gardeners were among those rejoicing as a wide swath of Minnesota saw much-needed rain on Sunday. But meteorologists say the state will need to see more rounds of steady rain to climb out of its current rainfall deficit.
