Duluth, MN – Thunderstorms could greet parts of Duluth and northeastern Minnesota Tuesday morning, but clearing skies and calmer weather are expected by late afternoon. The National Weather Service says breezy conditions will follow the storms, helping push lingering clouds east and making way for a sunny stretch midweek.
According to the NWS in Duluth, a slight chance of showers and thunderstorms will develop before 7 a.m., with another round possible before midday. Winds from the west will range from 10 to 15 mph, gusting up to 20 mph. By late Tuesday, skies will turn mostly clear as high pressure settles in.
Any storms that develop could bring brief downpours and gusty winds, especially along the North Shore and inland highways. Drivers should watch for wet roads during the morning commute, while boaters on Lake Superior may want to wait until winds ease later in the day.
After the storms pass, sunshine will dominate Wednesday and Thursday before another chance for showers arrives late in the week. Forecasters say this midweek break is a good window for outdoor projects, travel, or lake time.
