Seventies spin up thunderstorms

As anticipated yesterday, the warm front that ushered in temperatures in the 70s to central and southern Minnesota has also fired up showers and thunderstorms. A Severe Thunderstorm Watch is in effect this afternoon for southwest Minnesota. If sunshine reappears around the Twin Cities later today, the instability will increase and severe thunderstorms will be possible this evening.

Track thunderstorms and severe weather potential

Cooler weather is in store the remainder of the week. A wet Saturday may dampen your excitement about working the garden and yard.
