Flooding risk as storms set to bring over 5 inches of rain to Minnesota
Flooding risk as storms set to bring over 5 inches of rain to Minnesota originally appeared on Bring Me The News. Heavy showers and thunderstorms could bring flooding to parts of Minnesota starting Friday. The National Weather Service says consistent rain will move slowly east Friday morning, continuing on and off through the weekend and into early next week, with central Minnesota and the Twin Cities potentially seeing the largest amounts. In its forecast discussion, the rain system will be interspersed with thunderstorms, some of which could turn strong to severe in the late afternoon and evening over the coming days, similar to what happened on Thursday. The rain will bring a flash flooding risk on Friday morning, with the NWS saying: "A very moist environment combined with warm rain processes will lead to efficient rainfall rates. If any training convection can occur we [expect] rainfall totals of 3-4" [and] possibly even localized areas up to 5" may occur." Sign up for our BREAKING WEATHER newsletters A flash flooding alert has been issued for south-central Minnesota by the NWS Weather Prediction Center, which states: ".Bands of slow moving heavy rainfall with localized hourly totals of 1-2" may result in 5"+ totals through 7am CDT. "Isolated to scattered instances of flash flooding are likely (and may be locally significant)." There is further flooding risk in the longer term as well, with weather officials noting that accumulation of rain over the coming days could cause areal (occurring over a prolonged period of rain) or flash flooding in an area that includes the Twin Cities. The American model is currently showing totals in excess of five inches over the next five days, with parts of the metro seeing 3-4 inches. "Areas that see rounds of rain 2-3 days in a row could see amounts of 3" to possibly even 5"," the NWS says. "The Grand Ensemble mean currently favors highest precipitation amounts across central MN (including the Twin Cities metro) into west-central WI through next Wednesday. "Areal and flash flooding is definitely a possibility through mid-next week, especially for low-lying and urban areas." Parts of Minnesota already received a decent soaking of rain during Thursday's storms, with more than 2 inches reported in Ortonville, and over 1.2 inches recorded in Brooklyn Park in the Twin Cities.

US Air Quality Alerts Lifted Nationwide
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. As of early Friday morning, the United States has no active air quality alerts after a week of warnings, partly related to smoke from widespread Canadian wildfires. The National Weather Service's (NWS) online map showed the removal of all advisories that had covered the Midwest, Northeast, and other regions earlier in the week. Why It Matters The clearing of air quality alerts marks a significant improvement after days of hazardous smoke drifted from Canada into the U.S., leading to unhealthy air in cities from Minneapolis to New York. Widespread exposure to wildfire smoke heightened health risks, particularly for sensitive groups, and prompted public health warnings in multiple states. What To Know On Thursday, 10 states were affected by air quality alerts, including Minnesota, Wisconsin, Montana, Indiana, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Virginia, New York, New Jersey, and Maryland. While not all were explicitly linked to wildfire smoke, an alert for Minnesota warned that smoke had caused levels of fine particles to climb in to "unhealthy for sensitive groups" category, which includes infants and older adults. "Reduce vehicle trips and vehicle idling as much as possible," the alert said at the time. It also suggested reducing other activities that contribute to air pollution, such as outdoor burning. On Monday, Ohio, Maine, and New Hampshire were under air quality alerts, with officials in Maine recommending that individuals consider limiting strenuous outdoor physical activity to reduce the risk of adverse health effects. Tuesday saw alerts issued for parts of Arizona and Ohio. On Wednesday, six Michigan counties were under air quality alert, with mapping from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) showing high levels of air pollution in several other states, including Montana, and North Dakota. The sun is shrouded by smoke from wildfires in Canada as it rises behind the skyline of midtown Manhattan in New York City on June 11 as seen from Jersey City, New Jersey. The sun is shrouded by smoke from wildfires in Canada as it rises behind the skyline of midtown Manhattan in New York City on June 11 as seen from Jersey City, New People Are Saying Professor of pediatric respiratory and environmental medicine Jonathan Grigg, with Queen Mary, University of London, previously told Newsweek: "There are vulnerable groups and classically they are children because they've got an extra issue to do with their lungs developing, whereas our lungs are not developing as adults. "Their trajectory can be deviated so they don't actually achieve their maximum lung function." There are also "very clear links" between inhaling particles and earlier death from both respiratory and cardiovascular diseases, Grigg said. Additionally, Grigg said conditions such as asthma are also exacerbated by exposure to air pollution. What Happens Next? Though there may be no air quality alerts for now, forecasters at AccuWeather are predicting that smoke from Canadian wildfires could continue to impact the U.S. through the summer, leading to hazy skies and potentially promoting additional air quality alerts in the coming months.
