Severe Weather Likely In Minnesota + Wisconsin Thursday
It seems like we went from winter to spring to summer really fast in the Northland! It has been very hot as of late as well.
In fact, it was so warm earlier this month, that Duluth broke its daily record high for Mother's Day, nearly hitting the ninety degree mark.
It's not even June yet and it's already felt like summer quite a bit this month. With that also comes the risk of severe weather.
It looks like we have the potential for severe weather later this week and rain into the weekend, so soak in the sun while you can.

Stay Aware During Severe Weather In Minnesota + Wisconsin
It's always good to be weather aware. I always follow National Weather Service of Duluth's social media pages so I can be the first to know about severe weather threats.
This is especially important if you have outdoor plans! (Yes, you may have to put off fishing for just one day. Ha!)
I am a self-proclaimed weather nerd so I love watching storms roll in but obviously severe weather needs to be taken seriously! Stay safe this week.
