Morning storms hit up north Tuesday, while Twin Cities could see severe evening weather

MINNEAPOLIS — Minnesota will deal with a couple of rounds of storms on Tuesday, with early activity up north and a more widespread disturbance in the evening.

The first wave will bring a lot of rain, damaging winds and possibly hail across northern Minnesota. Things should calm down up north by late morning.

The Twin Cities will see some sunshine early, along with some humidity. Highs will reach the mid-80s with a heat index near 90.

Another wave of storms will develop out west in the late afternoon. A line of storms stretching across the state from north to south will move east, hitting the metro between 5 p.m. and 8 p.m. There is a slight risk of severe weather with this line, and some roads near Henderson are closed due to high water.

Things will cool to the lower 70s on Wednesday, then warm up a bit on Thursday and even more on Friday.

Wednesday should be mainly dry, but there will be a chance for showers every other day for the rest of the week, and Saturday could bring more storms.
