Here is the radar as of 8:50pm. A few showers/thundershowers are at the South Dakota/Minnesota border. Those will fizzle out some and more storms will fire up after midnight. Scattered storms will impact us in the overnight hours and morning hours of tomorrow. We will then get a little break in the late morning hours before a second round of storms develops in the afternoon. The severe threat is very low, but one or two storms could be on the stronger side. Highs tomorrow will be cooler, near 80, but it will stay muggy tomorrow until that cold front passes by Saturday evening. Saturday night, it will turn clear and very comfortable with lows in the low 60s.

Happy 4th of July everyone! I hope all of you are enjoying the day with the people you love.

Today, the sunny weather continues. It has been a week of sunny skies and a nice break from the active weather. However, it is a hot and muggy 4th of July with all of us around 90 degrees. This actually makes it the hottest 4th of July since 2021. It is hard to believe last year for the 4th; highs were in the low 70s. So, what about rain chances tonight?

Tonight, it is going to be a warm and muggy night like last night. It is looking like most of us should be able to get the fireworks in tonight. A line of thunderstorms will move in from the west this evening. This could impact the west side of Minnesota/northern Iowa around 11pm. Everything will then gradually move east after midnight. If you are east of, say New Ulm or Fairmont, you may not have storms arrive until closer to 2am or later. Any severe threat is really low, but one or two storms could be on the stronger side overnight.

I will update things again this evening as storms develop and get closer, but all in all, it looks like most of us will not be impacted until after midnight
