We are heading into Labor Day and for many of us, the weather looks to be very pleasant this weekend. South Dakota however, will be looking at a rain system setting up shop the next few days.

Friday will be the main day we see chances for rain this weekend, but cooler temperatures will be moving in for a breezy weekend around the Northland.

We continue our active wet pattern as we go into this weekend. Storms from overnight Friday in the Dakotas travel east, resulting in showers and t-showers throughout Minnesota and Wisconsin during the afternoon for Saturday. As we go into Sunday another round of shower and storm chances move into the region.

After a stormy end to the week, we have a nice and quiet weekend to look forward to. Strong to severe storms look to move through the Red River Valley Friday evening, then move east and weaken overnight.

As we head into the first weekend of August, areas of rain and diminishing smoke will be the main features. For Saturday the south wind will help continue to clean out the smoke from the Canadian Wildfire, along with some chances of afternoon T-Showers in the Dakotas.

Storm chances will be around into the new week as well.

It's another weekend where most of us get a break from the rain. After Friday's thunder showers that rolled through the region, the last of that system moves out by Saturday morning. By the afternoon, a lot of us will be looking at partly to mostly sunny skies over the region.

Sunny skies and seasonal temperatures will be over the region this weekend.

Heat peaks on the 4th of July with highs in the 90s for most, before a cold front brings in evening t-storms into Saturday.

Bring plenty of water if you plan to be outdoors, and keep an eye on the radar.
