Key Points: September 22, 2017
Synopsis: Good Friday morning! We are watching drenching storms this morning across central Minnesota which has dropped 1-4″ of rain locally. This system will diminish this afternoon, but our attention then turns to a slow moving front bringing some severe risks to eastern North Dakota and northern Minnesota this evening and tonight. Another wave of energy comes later tomorrow into Sunday with additional heavy rains across the Dakotas and northern Minnesota. This slow moving front will continue to creep south and east through early next week bringing additional rains. Cooler conditions will be the main theme behind the front as well. Some harvest delays are expected into next week, but latest indications are that drier conditions return for later next week and beyond. Have a blessed day!
