FRIDAY: SCATTERED LIGHT RAIN SHOWERS, CLOUDY, HIGHS IN 50S
On Friday morning, the center of a low pressure system was moving from south to north through La Crosse, WI. Meanwhile, a larger bunch of showers was moving south east at similar speed through Olmsted and Dodge counties. These showers slowed as they moved into the area and dropped around a quarter of an inch of rain in spots like Rochester. As of 8:45 am, there were still some lingering showers in spots closeby including parts of Mower, Steele, and Fillmore counties.
The rest of the day will feature more occasional light showers as the entire system continues to move north. High temps will top out in the mid 50s with cloudy skies. Winds will pick up out of the west this afternoon to 10-15mph. Rain moves out of the area completely after 8pm. Temps drop into the 40s overnight.
