After today’s storms move out, we’ll get a much-needed break from both the rain and the humidity. Thursday and Friday will bring a couple of cooler, more comfortable summer days with lower humidity, light wind and highs generally in the low to upper 80s. After that brief break, our attention quickly turns to the heat as temperatures begin climbing this weekend and a much hotter pattern develops early next week.Scattered showers and thunderstorms will remain possible through the evening as a cold front slowly moves south through the region. The atmosphere will become increasingly unstable across southern and southeastern Minnesota into northern Iowa, which should support another round of thunderstorm development.The primary severe weather risk will be south and east of the Mankato/North Mankato area. Damaging straight-line wind gusts will be the main concern, along with hail in the strongest storms. A few storms could organize into short line segments capable of producing locally stronger wind gusts. The tornado risk is low, but an isolated tornado is still possible. <figure><img src="https://img.particlenews.com/image.php?type=thumbnail_580x000&amp;url=3XkO6L_1D77zqhS00" alt="https://img.particlenews.com/image.php?url=3XkO6L_1D77zqhS00" width="1366" height="768" ><figcaption>This image updates in real time as conditions change.</figcaption></figure>Once today’s storms move out, rain chances become few and far between. Thursday looks dry with lower humidity and highs in the low 80s. Friday will be warmer with highs in the upper 80s, but still with plenty of dry weather.The bigger weather story then becomes the heat. Temperatures will climb into the upper 80s Saturday, low 90s Sunday and mid 90s Monday and Tuesday. Exactly how hot it gets is still uncertain, but several days of very hot and humid weather are becoming increasingly likely. Early next week could bring some of the hottest weather of the summer so far, with afternoon temperatures well into the 90s and very warm nights offering little relief. It would be a good idea to start thinking ahead about ways to stay cool and limit extended time outside during the hottest part of the day.Keep your KEYC First Alert Weather app handy for the latest on the severe weather and the heat arriving this weekend. </div></body>
