The rest of Wednesday will be mostly sunny, but we do still have two rounds of rain coming within the next week. I have all the details today at noon.
Here's a look at this morning's top local headlines with 715 Live
Wednesday will be another sunny day outside with highs in the low to mid-80s. It is not until early next week when temperatures drop closer to average. Rain early next week will play a role in that. We also have storms still expected very early Friday, but severe weather is still not likely.
There are some more clouds moving in from Minnesota, but we will still have plenty of blue skies tonight. The next couple days are also trending sunny before rain chances increase heading into the weekend and beyond.
Question of the Day? What's something you've always wanted to learn how to do?
We do have some lingering clouds early today, but said clouds will clear out for another sunny day outside. Temperatures top out in the mid-80s. It will continue to feel like mid-July until our next rain chance Friday morning. Severe weather is still not expected locally and rainfall is still trending light.
Monday will be another warm, mostly sunny to partly cloudy day outside. The Northern Lights could be visible tonight. This week should be mostly dry... key word being "mostly." Find out when the best rain chance is this week today at noon.
