Early storms across southern Minnesota Tuesday, then more heat and humidity

After a line of storms moves through the state Tuesday morning, Minnesota will be left with another hot and humid day.

Those storms started in southern Minnesota and are moving northeast. WCCO has issued a NEXT Weather Alert due to the potential for severe weather, including strong winds, hail and heavy rain. As of 5:20 a.m., the only impact in the Twin Cities has been rain in the west metro, though a severe thunderstorm watch is in place until 10 a.m.

Sunshine will return in the afternoon, with heat index values reaching 95 to 100. A heat advisory is in effect until 9 p.m.

Wednesday morning will likely bring another round of showers and thunderstorms, as well as a break from the hottest temperatures.

Stormy moments and hot, humid weather will continue throughout the week and into the July Fourth weekend.
