MINNEAPOLIS — For just the second time this year, the high hit 90 degrees on Saturday in the Twin Cities, and it feels even hotter due to heavy humidity. This time last year, there had already been 19 90-degree days.

Some storms may spark up on Saturday afternoon in northwestern Minnesota. Through Sunday, a cold front will approach the metro, pushing storms into central Minnesota by the evening and into the metro on Sunday night.

Saturday night the temperature will drop back down to the 70s but will remain muggy. The temperature climbs right back up to the high 80s on Sunday.

The threat for severe weather remains low, with a slight risk on Saturday and a marginal risk on Sunday. Flash flooding is possible.

It stays hot and humid with highs back near 90 for Sunday. Some storms linger into Monday, but then the dry/hot pattern looks to continue next week. Another round of storms is expected later in the week.
