This Hazardous Weather Outlook is for portions of northeast
Minnesota and northwest Wisconsin.

.DAY ONE...Today and Tonight

Near-critical fire weather conditions are forecast this afternoon
and evening from the Brainerd Lakes north to the Canadian border
to the western Boundary Waters. There is a 5-10% chance of an
isolated storm from the Brainerd Lakes north to near International
Falls this afternoon and early evening and over portions of the
Arrowhead. Severe storms are not expected. Winds over western Lake
Superior will turn northeast late tonight and early Saturday
morning which will increase the risk of rip currents during the
pre-dawn hours for the beaches of the Twin Ports.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Saturday through Thursday

Near-critical fire weather conditions due to low RH values will
persist through early next week.

Strong northeast winds and building waves will increase the
threat of rip currents Saturday and again Monday for areas near
the Twin Ports, including the beaches of Duluth and Superior. A
Beach Hazards Statement will likely be needed.

There is a 5-10% chance of isolated afternoon and evening storms
Saturday. The potential for isolated storms increases to 10-20%
Monday evening through late next week. A few storms may be
strong.
Widespread severe weather is not expected.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

Skywarn spotter activation will not be needed today or tonight.
