Weather Corner By Jake Yurek

We’ll continue our weather-winning streak this week as pleasant temperatures and only a couple chances of rain slide our way. Our very abnormal year continues as we stay on the cool side of the summer warm front (only two 90-degree highs to date, normally we see 15 or so). The upper-level winds that basically control our weather continue to keep the hot temperatures and rain to our south. A storm sys- tem will increase rain chances mid week but as I write this the bulk of it appears to be aimed at southwestern Minnesota. It looks like our best chance of rain would be Wednesday with a couple of widely scattered chances as we progress towards the weekend. The end of the week chances won’t be widespread; these types of storms pop up late in the day as heating creates enough instability to develop a thunderstorm and move on quickly.
