Residents of St. Cloud and Sauk Rapids were treated to hail that range in size from quarters to baseballs.

Storms moved out of the state and into western Wisconsin by 10 p.m. Temperatures will drop to the 60s Friday night with partly cloudy skies.

Meadows says storms shouldn't be an issue on Saturday. The day should remain dry, including during the Aquatennial fireworks. Temperatures will be a bit warm and muggy.

On Sunday, Minnesotans should stay weather aware as there is a chance for showers and thunderstorms.

The coming week should be calm, cooler, not quite as humid and some sun in the forecast.
