weather forecast

Chris Shaffer's Weather: Expect a very warm, humid couple of days with some storm chances mixed in "It could feel like the upper 90s, right on the threshold of the National Weather Service issuing heat advisories"

More storms coming in Monday evening with the potential for a "derecho" bringing damaging winds and flooding rains "There's an enhanced risk and they don't throw this term out there very often," says Meteorologist Chris Shaffer

More than 4-inches of rain in parts of northern Minnesota lead to flash floods

Another hot, humid, sticky - and possibly stormy - day in the Twin Cities and it could threaten the Aquatennial Torchlight "I'll definitely keep a close eye on that because there's gonna be a lot of people downtown," says Chris Shaffer

It'll be a scorcher - get ready for a humid and uncomfortable Tuesday and Thursday with some storm chances WCCO-TV Chief Meteorologist says dew points will crawl into the 70s making it feel close to 100 degrees

What does all the recent rain mean for Minnesota? The National Weather Service helps break it down

Chris Shaffer's Weather: Heat Advisory for the metro Tuesday followed by some storms and much cooler weather Temperatures combined with some serious humidity will make it feel nearly 100 Tuesday afternoon

Chris Shaffer's Weather: Heat advisory for the Twin Cities for the 4th of July but rain should hold off for fireworks Shaffer says the weekend will be much more tolerable with less humidity - but on and off rain on Saturday

Plenty of rain chances coming up - could that lead to some localized flooding? "We'll have a lot of rainfall over kind of the east, central to southeastern part of the state"

If it's not the smoke it's the rain? Some heavy precipitation is on the way "We're gonna see some healthy totals out of this," says WCCO-TV Chief Meteorologist Chris Shaffer
