Storms on Friday across Minnesota before a dry and mild weekend
MINNEAPOLIS — Make sure to grab that umbrella and raincoat if you're heading outside Friday evening.
The Twin Cities saw some dry time during the day before a second round of storms is expected to sprout up as the main low-pressure system darts eastward.
The second system has a slight risk of hail and wind concerns.
Friday's storms are expected to drop a quarter-inch to a half-inch rain in the Twin Cities, with some areas getting closer to an inch — especially north of Interstate 94.
Temperatures are expected to reach 77 degrees in the Twin Cities.
The weekend will bring in high pressure and pleasant weather. All the great events in Minneapolis and across the state will have sunshine and lower to mid-70s.
The stretch of 70s wraps up Monday, leaving us one more day below average to start the week. It comes with some showers too.
There is no big-time heat, but we get back to average or above by Tuesday. A few storms and some may be strong, but things will dry out and return to the lower 80s by Wednesday.
