Clear skies this afternoon will slowly give way to increasing cloud cover this evening as a cold front approaches from the west. Min RH in the low 30 percent range will gradually recover through the remainder of the afternoon and evening, holding steady at 55-60 percent from 8 PM into the early overnight hours. Breezy southerly winds of 7-10 mph will continue to gust to 10-14 mph into early tonight before weakening for the remainder of tonight into early/mid Saturday morning. There is a very low chance (10 percent) for a stray shower mid to late evening, otherwise scattered rain shower chances improve to 40-50% overnight into Saturday morning. Total accumulations remain light, however, with total expected rainfall between 0.1-0.2 inches. RH recovery to 80 percent is expected by early tomorrow morning. Rain moves out by late Saturday morning. Expect winds to veer to primarily southwesterly from late Saturday morning into Sunday as the weakening cold front stalls out across east-central MN and then pushes back north as a cold front on Sunday. These winds will be around 6-8 mph with gusts to 10-14 mph from midday Saturday through the afternoon hours before weakening overnight and then gusting back up to 14-19 mph daytime Sunday. Min RH will be higher on Saturday at 60 percent during the afternoon, recover to near 100 percent on Saturday night, and then drop back to 45-50 percent on Sunday afternoon. Temperatures remain above average each day, with highs even hitting the mid to upper 70s on Sunday afternoon. .TONIGHT...
