Tonights and Mondays Severe Weather Risk!
Getting right to the point there will be a risk for severe thunderstorms tonight as a warm front pushes north. Storms will develop to the west of our area and push east over the evening hours and overnight. The main threats for our local area will be large hail and damaging winds along with heavy rainfall and flooding. Especially in Goodhue County. The best chance for storms pushing in will be after 8pm this evening. Monday there will be another risk of severe thunderstorms during the evening hours, although this chance will not nearly be as high as Sundays. The main threats will be hail and high winds and heavy rain and flooding after dark Monday, Especially in the northern parts of the area. Rainfall amounts could reach over 2" in localized areas.
Short Lived Heat Wave-Very Hot 95.F to 100.F Mon/Tues
After the passing of this warm front we will be under the influence of a short lived but potent heat wave which will bring very hot temperatures and very high heat index values to our area. Under sweltering sunshine and very high dewpoints in the 70s, High temperatures will reach the middle 90s and it is not out of the question that some places could hit 100.F or get close to it, especially on Tuesday when the heat wave peaks. Even without the actual temp in the 100s range. Heat index values will be well into the lower 100s during the day and not fall out of the low 80s at night. This type of weather is dangerous for people working or being outdoors. Drink plenty of water if your going to be out and around Monday and Tuesday.
