Another hot day Wednesday before storms strike Minnesota on Thursday
Minnesota will see one more hot day on Wednesday before storms arrive, bringing with them a big cooldown.
Highs will reach the upper 80s in the Twin Cities. As wildfires continue to burn up north, there will be an elevated fire risk for parts of the state, though it's not severe enough to trigger a red flag warning. Clouds will develop late in the day.
Thursday will bring more storms, with some potential severe weather in western Wisconsin and eastern Minnesota. One wave will develop in the morning, possibly during the drive to work. Then, a second system will arrive in the afternoon and push east. Highs will drop to right around 80.
Hail is the main threat, along with wind. Tornadoes are also possible, according to NEXT Weather meteorologists.
Temperatures will be much cooler on Friday, with highs in the 60s. Expect some scattered showers.
Saturday looks dry and seasonable, with highs in the mid-60s and sunshine. Sunday will be cooler, with a small chance of showers.
