A powerful spring storm system could deliver our first thunder of the season late Friday with rain Friday night turning to snow Saturday as colder air moves in.
There’s even the risk of strong storms late Friday in southeastern Minnesota. While the bigger threat of severe weather will be south of Minnesota, one or two strong storms can’t be ruled out in southeastern Minnesota.
Heavy snow continues to be favored for northern and western Minnesota at this point in the forecast models.
Temps will drop through the day Saturday into Sunday bringing a return to below-normal temperatures by Sunday.
