Comfy Saturday temps; chance of scattered showers and storms
Comfortable temps and humidities are with us as August begins. Some areas will also see some scattered showers and thunderstorms. Details on that, plus a look at Sunday and the week ahead.
The uneventful weather trend of the past few days will be interrupted as a cold front brings showers and storms across the state. Behind the front, cooler weather settles in and quiet weather returns.
Most of Minnesota remains dry and comfortable Friday, but a cold front will bring the northwestern corner of the state showers and storms by afternoon.
Other than chances for rain Friday and Saturday, predominantly dry weather continues into late next week. However, the lack of significant rain could erode recent improvements in Minnesota’s drought areas.
