Morning puddles give way to slow clearing this afternoon, with highs near 70F. And daytime highs hold in the 70s most of May. No more heat spikes or cold slaps brewing. In spite of a few windblown showers on Thursday, a mostly-dry weather pattern lingers the next 2 weeks. Check the blog for more details. -Todd Nelson
Showers and T-storms will be most numerous south of I-94 today and tonight with little rain for the Brainerd Lakes. How much? Over 1" for the metro, and maybe 2-3" amounts for far southern and southwestern Minnesota, closer to a juicy warm frontal boundary. Check the blog for more details. -Todd Nelson
