Today started out much cooler but then the air temperature increased steadily through the morning to hit our high temp of 71°F. Since noon there has been increasing cloud cover and stronger wind gusts. Minnesota and Wisconsin are currently situated between two parallel bands of stationary fronts with a precipitation path of rain running between the fronts. We have a low (less than 50%) chance of rain throughout tonight and tomorrow. By Thursday the tail end of the stationary front that is tied to a cold front and a bunch of low pressure sports will make its way to us and we should expect at least rain and perhaps a thunderstorm in the evening/early nighttime hours. The next two days should be pretty warm (late 70s) because the stationary fronts are blocking other air masses from interfering and keeping the warm air over us.
