A few rain chances, but the weekend trends better – Chris

Good Wednesday evening!

It’s another muggy night across Minnesota, with partly cloudy skies and a chance of storms mainly across southwestern Minnesota. Most of the metro should stay fairly quiet overnight, with lows only falling into the low 70s.

Thursday brings variably cloudy skies and seasonable temperatures, with highs in the mid-80s. A stray storm is possible, but it does not look like a widespread rain day.

The biggest change in the forecast is the weekend. What once looked like a potential washout is now trending more toward hit-or-miss showers.

A few showers may arrive late Friday night, then Saturday looks mostly cloudy with scattered, hit-or-miss showers. It may not be a perfect day, but it no longer looks like an all-day soaking rain for everyone.

Sunday still looks like the better half of the weekend, with partly cloudy skies, pleasant temperatures, and highs near 80 degrees.
