This Hazardous Weather Outlook is for portions of central and
southern Minnesota...and west central Wisconsin.

.DAY ONE...Today and Tonight

There is a chance of thunderstorms overnight tonight with a
marginal risk of severe weather, mainly south of the Minnesota
River Valley. Large hail and damaging wind gusts would be the
primary concern with any severe storms, along with locally heavy
rainfall.

Warm and humid conditions today will push heat indices into the
lower 90s over much of the area, particularly south of Interstate
94. Those working outdoors or involved in strenuous outdoor
activities should ensure they stay hydrated and take periodic
breaks.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Friday through Wednesday

Thunderstorms are possible Friday and Saturday, with a slight risk
of severe storms across most of the area. Large hail and damaging
wind gusts are the primary expected hazards. Locally heavy
rainfall is also a concern, particularly south of Interstate 94.

Thunderstorm chances return for Tuesday into Wednesday, but
widespread severe weather is not anticipated.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

SKYWARN spotter activation will not be needed through tonight.
