00:00Well, snow continues to fall in northeastern Minnesota today.

00:02We are going to see some pop-up showers in southern Minnesota with potentially some gusty winds.

00:07The sun is back tomorrow. More rain is on the way, though, for Thursday.

00:20So we continue to see our latest system spinning over almost Lake Superior,

00:25bringing rain and snow showers to northern Minnesota.

00:27But further south, we're seeing some peaks of sunshine, and we're going to see more of instability-driven

00:32precip develop later this afternoon.

00:34You can see some of those breaks in the clouds and just a little bit of that with that cold, unstable air aloft.

00:39We're going to develop some pop-up showers and even a couple garden-variety thunderstorms, though,

00:44maybe with some wind gusts and some small hail, potentially.

00:48Low to mid-50s for highs in southern Minnesota with those peaks of sun.

00:51Well, it's only in the 30s to the north, so cold enough for snow up there ongoing,

00:55on and off snow and rain showers.

00:57But here are those pop-up showers, especially in southern and western Minnesota.

01:01And again, not severe, but these will be some more intense garden-variety thundershowers

01:06where we could see some strong wind gusts out of those and some of that small hail, as you mentioned.

01:11But up to a couple of inches of snow is what we're talking about up on the gun flint today.

01:15A lot more snow.

01:16Storm winds for the UP of Michigan, so at least we don't have that.

01:19But winter weather advisories for Lake and Cook counties.

01:22And then most of the North Shore, we have a wind advisory where we could see 50-mile-an-hour or higher gusts,

01:27the result of that system today, with gale warnings over Lake Superior.

01:31So northern Minnesota bearing the brunt of this system,

01:34but we're still going to see some implications or impacts, one of which is the wind today.

01:39We're all seeing very windy conditions.

01:41Tomorrow will still be windy, too, but not as blustery.

01:4410 to 20-mile versus 20 to 30-mile-an-hour today for those sustained wind speeds.

01:48But we are going to see some pretty high gusts, as I mentioned, along the North Shore, 40 to 50-mile-an-hour.

01:53But also in some of those thundershowers, we could see some 40 to 50-mile-an-hour wind gusts below the severe threshold.

01:59But again, just enough gusty winds out of some of those thunderstorms.

02:03And it's going to be colder tonight.

02:04Skies will start to clear late in the night.

02:0720s in northern Minnesota, 30s to the south.

02:09But a lot of clouds still today.

02:11But again, peaks of sunshine here in the southern part of the state.

02:13That's what's driving some of those late afternoon and evening showers.

02:17But tomorrow, we're going to see the return of sunshine.

02:19And that means it'll be a little warmer, probably mid to upper 50s across southern Minnesota.

02:2440s mostly to the north, though still in the Arrowhead, probably upper 30s only for high temperatures Tuesday.

02:30Spring is always slow to come up there.

02:32Still a foot of snow on the ground as you go deep into the gun front, too.

02:37So gradual progress there.

02:38But it's going to be warmer Thursday ahead of this next system.

02:4060s, maybe some low 70s in southwestern Minnesota.

02:43We're going to see this broad upper-level trough develop.

02:46A wave coming out of the northwest and an upper-level low kind of combining.

02:49And this is a stormy setup.

02:52This could develop severe weather to our south.

02:55And as we get into the warmer season, that kind of setup could be stormier for us as far as severe weather.

02:59But mostly showers and thunderstorms popping up Thursday afternoon especially.

03:03But a severe threat in Iowa Thursday into Thursday night.

03:07And then some lingering showers Friday.

03:08So this next system Thursday into Thursday night looks primarily liquid, even for northern Minnesota.

03:14Anywhere from a quarter to maybe a half inch, three-quarters of an inch of rain.

03:17So not quite as soaking as some of the systems we've had.

03:21We've talked about this pattern from March, which was much stormier than what we've been seeing so far in April.

03:26As far as the amounts of precip out of these systems.

03:29But 52 today in the Twin Cities.

03:32Again, look for some late afternoon and evening showers to pop up.

03:35Especially across southern and western Minnesota.

03:38They're going to be more isolated within the metro.

03:40Decreasing clouds tomorrow.

03:42Very seasonable.

03:43Mid-50s with sunshine.

03:44Should see a decent day on Wednesday too back into the 60s.

03:47Thursday will be dry for the first half of the day.

03:50Warmer too.

03:51And then the potential for some showers and thunderstorms popping up.

03:54Lingering clouds and a few showers Friday.

03:58And another decent looking weekend shaping up.

04:00Saturday looks bright with temperatures close to normal.

04:03Right around 60, both Saturday and Sunday.

04:05Could see some showers develop again maybe late Sunday though.
