Patchy showers Thursday, Friday in Twin Cities ahead of pleasant weekend
MINNEAPOLIS — After a few dry hours on Thursday morning, spotty showers and storms return later in the day.
With a mostly cloudy sky, temperatures won't warm as much with highs in the mid-to-upper 70s.
Another .25-.50 inch of rain is possible, with most likely across eastern Minnesota. The low-pressure system will linger well into Friday.
It was rainy/stormy overnight! Many locations south of the cities picked up an inch of rain. We still have a chance for passing showers and storms later today. But, the wettest part of the system has now passed the Cities. Have a great Thursday! @WCCO #mnwx #wiwx pic.twitter.com/k3FHt3U7Jd

Friday will be cool in the mid-70s but it will still be muggy.
Scattered showers look to move out of the area by Saturday morning with high pressure back in time for the weekend.
Expect sunshine on both days with seasonable highs back up near 80. Highs are expected to stay in the 80s into next week.
The next rainmaker looks to hold until late Tuesday into Wednesday of next week.
