Summery weekend ahead with return of isolated thunderstorms

MINNEAPOLIS — Friday will have a similar look and feel to the last few days in the Twin Cities with a mostly sunny sky, a bit of haze and highs in the mid-80s.

Wildfire smoke aloft should improve even more as we head into Friday evening. A cold front from the Dakotas and the leftovers of Francine will help throw some clouds our way.  

Some isolated showers and thunderstorms are possible on Saturday but don't expect much impact. This will also drop the temps a bit closer to 80.

That moisture looks to shift east by Sunday with some sunshine back and highs returning to the mid-80s.

We stay in the 80s with a mix of sun and clouds into next week, and though shower chances will make it feel unsettled, high temps will continue to make it feel like summer.
