Scattered storms continue to develop tonight first across western Minnesota and tracking eastward towards the metro. The Twin Cities has the risk for severe weather especially this evening through about 10 PM. Isolated strong to severe storms are still possible overnight, but that’s more likely across southern Minnesota.

Large hail, damaging winds, downpours and a few tornadoes are possible this late afternoon and evening. The risk for severe weather is greatest west of the Twin Cities across southwestern Minnesota (along and south of a line from Morris to Willmar, to Mankato).

Scattered showers and storms stay in the forecast overnight tonight into Thursday. Areas of fog also develop again late tonight into tomorrow morning. Tomorrow’s chance for rain and storms will be mainly in the morning. Cloud cover clears west to east tomorrow afternoon with isolated storms possible in the late afternoon and evening, but I do not anticipate severe weather.

Dry skies return by Friday and most of the weekend stays dry as well. Friday and Saturday stay hot and muggy, but it looks like we’ll have some relief on the way Sunday and especially by the start of next week.
