High Pressure at Jetstream level and that will mean warmer weather patterns developing again for an extended period of time.
We're going to start to see a little more cloud cover and some of this unsettled weather you see around us right now move in. We'll get a little closer here you can start to see around the central part of Minnesota some cumulus clouds developing to the West.
Clear skies in the middle headed off to the north along the Canadian border. some of those clouds have been trying to drop a few sprinkles as well but the air is so dry low levels today like yesterday with a lot of that is not reaching the ground.
Temperature right now in the Metro is 66 and that's a common number region-wide comparing this to yesterday at noon temperatures are up a few degrees but it's also a little bit Breezy or so feeling about the same out there.
I think everyone in the metro area knows warmer temperatures near 70 all the way up to the Canadian border.
Southwest winds sustained 10 to 15 we've already seen some dust up to 20 and then we'll see some Gustav highest 30 + in a Red River Valley up to 40 miles an hour through the afternoon.
Combined with low relative humidity is that means we do it that increase brush fire risk and watch the Twin Cities, the I-35 Corridor to the afternoon see a fair amount of cloud cover develop during the warmth of the afternoon and again there could be a couple of spots sprinkles are showers developing to the Westin Northwest of the Metro but the air will likely end up drying those rain showers out before they reach the ground.
Overnight lows tonight typical for this time of year upper 40s to hear 50 Southwest and Southern Minnesota's we wake up tomorrow morning will likely be dealing with some periods of rain possible will be a Rumble of Thunder
I think that's pretty unlikely but we're going to keep an eye on that through the morning and in the afternoon
best rain chances tomorrow in southern Minnesota but we could see a few spotty light showers here during the middle part of the day and we'll watch northern Minnesota for some of the same coming up tomorrow aside from that outside shower threat little better chance for rain keeps temperatures in the 50s to the South
2 degrees cooler elsewhere but still in the 60s and then end of the weekend Saturday all possible otherwise light winds little bit of sun temperatures near 67
fishing opener looks okay and then Sunday looks even better with highs near 73 and we'll keep the temperatures climbing from there on out right now shall I have temperatures forecasted in the mid-70s for Monday through Wednesday
next week we may have to raise those temperatures will see if we get a little closer closer to 80.
