MINNEAPOLIS — Upper-level energy will keep a few spotty showers in the forecast for Thursday afternoon, otherwise expect a mix of clouds and sun.
Temperatures will be a bit cooler than Wednesday with highs near 60 degrees.
A northwest breeze of up to 30 mph will make it feel a bit cooler, especially in the shade.
Don't be alarmed when you hear tornado sirens. Special tests will occur at 1:45 p.m. and 6:45 p.m. in Minnesota as part of Severe Weather Awareness Week. The 6:45 p.m. test was canceled for Wisconsin.
