The next best chance of a free lawn and garden watering doesn't arrive until sometime next week when the ridge of high pressure breaks down. Until then, enjoy this prelude to the Dog Days of summer with hazy sunshine at times. It's about as good as it gets! Check the blog for more details. -Todd Nelson
Another potentially bad smoke day is shaping up today, with enough murky sunshine for 80 degrees. Smoke may keep us a few degrees cooler. We cool off tomorrow with a stiff wind blowing from the east, before temperatures mellow by the weekend. I see hazy sunshine and low 80s for Memorial Day weekend. Check the blog for more details. -Todd Nelson
Clouds increase today with a few showers, even a rumble of thunder Thursday, as temperatures rise into the 60s. A huge storm stalling over Michigan will keep windblown rain showers in the forecast this weekend, but dreary highs in the 40s give way to 50s and 60s next week. Check the blog for more details. -Todd Nelson
More sunshine today and Wednesday helps us green up a little faster, with showers returning by Thursday. This weekend a massive, full-latitude storm will stall over the Great Lakes, pulling rain and wet snow out of Canada into Minnesota and Wisconsin. A few inches for the Arrowhead? Maybe a little MSP slush Monday morning. Check the blog for more details. -Todd Nelson
A cold storm sparks scrappy clouds today and sprinkles tomorrow, but it will start to feel like spring later this week, with highs poking into the 50s. A storm stalls over the Upper Midwest next weekend, keeping us cooler and wetter than normal. Check the blog for more details. -Todd Nelson
