A few downpours are possible late Tuesday afternoon and evening

Here’s your Tuesday evening forecast for May 7, 2024 from Minnesota’s Weather Authority and Meteorologist Wren Clair.

Good evening! Isolated showers and weak thunderstorms are possible this evening before sunset. However, most of the rain and storms are tracking northeastward into central Wisconsin and northeastern Minnesota. Tonight we’ll see partial clearing in our cloud cover, which should open up to a partly to mostly sunny Wednesday morning. Even so, the slight chance for a light and spotty shower stays in the forecast tomorrow morning. Most of tomorrow is dry and the chance for rain and storms is more likely late afternoon and evening across far southern Minnesota closer to I-90.

Thursday morning we keep the slight chance for a spot shower, but most of the day is dry and sunny with highs in the mid-60s. Another round of scattered t-showers moves in Friday afternoon, mainly from eastern Minnesota into Wisconsin. Looking ahead to Mother’s Day, there is a small chance for a pop-up t-shower in the afternoon. I would not let that cancel any outdoor plans! Isolated storm chances continue through the first half of next week, and highs stay in the seasonably warm mid 70s.

Have a wonderful night!
