Chris Reece said KTTQ weather will stay very warm and humid across Minnesota this week, with the first good chance for showers and thunderstorms arriving late Tuesday night. He closed the forecast with, "Enjoy the evening, and take care!"
Highs reached the 90s in parts of Minnesota today, and tonight stays muggy with mostly clear skies and lows falling into the upper 60s. Tuesday turns partly cloudy and very warm with highs in the upper 80s before showers and thunderstorms become possible late Tuesday night.
Chris Reece forecast
Wednesday is expected to stay seasonably warm with highs in the mid-80s, but another round of showers and storms is likely late Wednesday night. Thursday carries a different mix: a few showers or storms are possible very early and again very late, while most daylight hours should remain dry and highs climb back into the upper 80s.
The pattern is unsettled mainly after dark, not during the bulk of the day. That leaves most daytime hours usable through the week, even as repeated overnight storm chances return late Tuesday, late Wednesday, and again late in the week.
Minnesota overnight windows
Friday turns very warm and humid again with highs near 89 degrees, and a stray shower is possible early. Saturday and Sunday both bring highs in the upper 80s, with a chance of storms late in the day or at night, which keeps evening plans under the closest watch.
By Labor Day and the final day of the State Fair, highs drop back into the low 80s, and only a slight chance of a shower remains. For people planning around Minnesota’s late-day events, the safest window still looks like daylight, while the more active weather keeps lining up after sunset.
