Wednesday afternoon and evening will bring organized, potentially strong to severe thunderstorms to the region. The heat and humidity will finally break, but we'll pay the price with significant severe weather. The exact intensity will depend on front timing and whether any early-morning storms weaken the setup, but all severe hazards —hail, wind, and tornadoes—are in play.
Strong to severe storms will be possible throughout the afternoon and evening on Wednesday. All modes of severe weather are possible.
Showers and storms will be possible after 5 p.m. for areas north of Highway 14. Storms will move south of Minneapolis by 5 to 6 p.m., moving into northern Goodhue County.
High temperatures will be in the upper 80s and low 90s Monday through the 4th of July. Heat index values could reach the low 100s during the week.
Some big events are happening this weekend in SE Minnesota. Rochesterfest continues through the weekend in downtown Rochester. Highs will be in the low 80s on Saturday and mid-80s on Sunday. It should be really nice for the Rochesterfest parade on Saturday!
