.DISCUSSION...
Fire weather concerns remain low this afternoon, as minimum RH`s
range between 45 percent (WI) to 90 percent (western MN). This
spread represents continued dry conditions across eastern
MN/western WI and ongoing rain showers across western MN. The
upcoming forecast features more warmth and increasing moisture,
which will work to keep fire weather concerns low. Scattered
shower and storm chances become more likely across the entire
forecast area later this week.
