WEATHER SUMMARY FOR MINNESOTA
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TWIN CITIES/CHANHASSEN MN
333 AM CDT SAT MAY 25 2013

LIGHT RAIN HAS ENDED THIS MORNING FOR ALL BUT FAR SOUTHERN MN...BUT
PLENTY OF CLOUD COVER REMAINS. THANKS TO THOSE CLOUDS...IT IS ABOUT
10 DEGREES WARMER THIS MORNING THAN IT WAS FRIDAY MORNING...WITH
TEMPERATURES AT 3 AM RANGING FROM THE MID 40S UP IN THE
ARROWHEAD...WITH 50S STILL IN PLACE EVERYWHERE ELSE.

FOR TODAY...A WARM FRONT CURRENTLY ACROSS NEBRASKA INTO MISSOURI
WILL DRIFT UP INTO IOWA. THE STATE WILL BE FAR ENOUGH NORTH OF THE
BOUNDARY TO KEEP RAIN TODAY CONFINED TO MAINLY THE I-90
CORRIDOR...BUT PLENTY OF CLOUD COVER WILL HANG AROUND. THIS WILL
HOLD HIGHS BACK TO A GOOD 10 TO 20 DEGREES BELOW NORMAL...WITH UPPER
50S ABOUT ALL YOU CAN HOPE FOR IN SOUTH CENTRAL INTO SOUTHEAST
MINNESOTA...WHILE THE REST OF THE STATE STRUGGLES TO FIND THE MID
60S.

AS FOR THE WARM FRONT...GET USED TO IT! IT WILL BE SPENDING THE NEXT
WEEK OVER OR NEAR MINNESOTA. THIS WILL RESULT IN A FAIRLY WET NEXT 7
DAYS AS MULTIPLE ROUNDS OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS MOVE ALONG THIS
BOUNDARY AS IT WANDERS NORTH AND SOUTH. THE SEVERE POTENTIAL WITH
THE FRONT LOOKS PRETTY MINIMAL THROUGH THE HOLIDAY WEEKEND...BUT AS
WE HEAD INTO TUESDAY AND BEYOND...THAT WARM FRONT WILL BE PUSHING
FARTHER AND FARTHER NORTH INTO THE STATE...WHICH MEANS THE
POSSIBILITY FOR SEVERE WEATHER WILL BE ON THE INCREASE AS WE WORK
THROUGH NEXT WORK WEEK. BESIDE THE SEVERE WEATHER...AN ALREADY WET
MONTH OF MAY LOOKS TO END ON A WET NOTE...WITH MORE SEVERAL INCH
RAINFALL AMOUNTS POSSIBLE OVER THE COURSE OF THE LAST WEEK OF MAY.
