Good Tuesday morning everyone!
Overall, a fairly quiet morning across the area, but we do have dense fog advisories in effect for portions of SW Minnesota and the Eastern Dakotas. The fog will start to burn off as temperatures rise into mid-day:

Storms will develop with the front especially in South Dakota into Minnesota this evening and overnight:
