Key Points: June 9th, 2017
Synopsis: Good Friday morning! We are tracking some showers and thunderstorms across North Dakota this morning with the rest of the region rather quiet this morning. By this afternoon, showers and thunderstorms will erupt across the Dakotas. Some of the storms will be severe with all modes of severe weather possible. This is on the leading edge of very warm air developing across the region. Additional opportunities for showers and thunderstorms will arise through early next week and temperatures slowly return toward normal for this time of year. Have a blessed weekend!
