Storm track sets up over Minnesota with more active weather ahead
Storm track sets up over Minnesota with more active weather ahead originally appeared on Bring Me The News.
It could turn into a sloppy week in the southern half of Minnesota as multiple soaking storm systems are set to move through the region. The first shot of heavy rain — and perhaps strong storms — comes Wednesday, followed by another system on Thursday-Friday.
"After a cool start to the week, temperatures warm up briefly before we get into a stretch of more active weather. Heavy rain is possible Wednesday into Friday, especially across southern MN," says National Weather Service in the Twin Cities.
For Wednesday, the heaviest rain looks to be from areas on a line just south of the Twin Cities down to the Iowa border. The severe threat, however, looks for now like it'll be refined to the Minnesota-Iowa border and areas further south.
The NAM and European models agree that the most unstable, juiciest environment for strong or severe storms will be in Iowa.
The second wave of heavy rain looks again likely to target the southern half of Minnesota, though what happens Thursday into Friday could change with any wobble north or south of the stalled frontal boundary that is serving as a highway for precipitation to travel along.
Here's how the European model has the precipitation playing out Wednesday-Friday.
By Saturday morning, 1-2+ inches of rain could have fallen in southern Minnesota.
June, by the way, is typically the most active severe weather month of the year in Minnesota. There hasn't been a lot so far, but that could be changing as the active pattern starts this week and continues into next week.
Northern Illinois University's Extended Range Dynamical Environment Forecasts, which focus on predicting severe weather events in the future, is offering a signal for an increase in severe storm potential next week over Montana, North Dakota, South Dakota, Nebraska, Iowa and Minnesota.
We'll see what happens, but things could get more interesting in mid-June.

The last full moon of the spring will soon peak over Kansas. When to look for it
The last full moon of the spring will peak soon above Kansas, and the forecast calls for clear skies at least one of the days the moon will appear full. The 'strawberry' moon will peak overnight Wednesday, June 11, and will appear full the day before and the day after. The moon marks the peak of strawberry harvest season, and the name is attributed to the Algonquian, Ojibwe, Dakota and Lakota peoples, according to The Old Farmer's Almanac. The name does not refer to a pink or red colored appearance of the moon. More names for June's full moon include blooming moon (attributed to the Anishinaabe), green corn moon (Cherokee), hoer moon (Western Abenaki), birth moon (Tlingit), egg laying moon (Cree), hatching moon (Cree), honey moon (European) and mead moon (European). Last year's strawberry moon coincided with the summer solstice, which is Friday, June 20 this year. Meteorological summer, however, began June 1, and Wichita has already begun seeing warmer temperatures. Here's when to see this year's strawberry moon over Kansas, plus when to catch more full moons in 2025. The strawberry moon will be full at 2:44 a.m. Central Daylight Time June 11, according to the Farmers' Almanac. AccuWeather reports the nighttime forecast for June 11 calls for 'partly cloudy and humid' skies in Wichita. The full moon generally appears full the day before and after its peak. The night of June 10 will be clear in Wichita, AccuWeather forecasts, and the night of June 12 will be cloudy with possible thunderstorms. The moon will rise in Wichita at 9:48 p.m. June 11, according to online clock Time and Date. After the flower moon, stargazers will have six more opportunities to see a full moon this year. Here's when to look, from Thursday, July 10: Buck moon Saturday, Aug. 9: Sturgeon moon Sunday, Sept. 7: Corn moon Monday, Oct. 6: Hunter's moon (supermoon) Wednesday, Nov. 5: Beaver moon (supermoon) Thursday, Dec. 4: Cold moon (supermoon) The Kansas Astronomical Observers will hold a monthly meeting from 7:30 to 8:30 p.m. Saturday, June 21, outside Lake Afton Public Observatory. A star party will follow the announcements and discussion, weather-permitting.

NOAA Weather Radio down for a couple of days. Here's how to keep on top of Central Texas weather
AUSTIN (KXAN) — It acts like a radio station, but it doesn't play music. Instead, NOAA Weather Radio dispenses daily weather information including current conditions, local forecasts and weather synopses. It also sends out weather alerts in the event of a storm. From now through Wednesday the NOAA Weather Radio serving the Austin/San Antonio area will be off the air because it's doing a software update to the Advanced Weather Interactive Processing System, or AWIPS. This will happen from June 9-11, and people can stay weather-aware during this time is to keep up with KXAN. AWIPS is used by meteorologists at the National Weather Service to communicate and display meteorological data that assists forecasters to make accurate predictions of the weather and to dispense rapid warnings. The updates being done early this week are to fix those pesky bugs that sometimes affect computers, add new features, and infrastructure improvements that allow the system to do those accurate forecasts. Why you should get a weather radio So, how can you still get those reliable messages from the National Weather Service? Forecast operations will be handled during these three days by the Corpus Christi National Weather Service office. This is being done to minimize any possible service interruptions. More importantly, it won't affect how you get important weather information from the KXAN First Warning Weather Team. There are no interruptions that affect how we impart weather information to you. You can still rely on our team of meteorologists to give you accurate forecasts and any advisories, watches and/or warnings during these times since we are expecting a few days of showers and thunderstorms. And, as always, our KXAN Weather App is always a source of weather information should you need it during times when are not doing on-air weathercasts. It and include hourly and 7-day forecasts, plus radar and links to other weather resources on our site. The Austin/San Antonio weather service office itself will remain open and staffed so they will continue taking partner and public phone calls and perform any additional functions that can be completed without AWIPS.
