Storms moved through parts of Minnesota yesterday, bringing heavy rain and hail as a cold front swept across the state. Behind the front, areas of smoke are expected to drift in, carried by the jet stream. Temperatures will stay mild through the week, with highs in the mid to upper 70s. Another chance of rain arrives Friday and could linger into early next week, so outdoor plans may need a backup. While the pattern looks active heading into the peak of severe weather season, no severe threats are currently expected.
