Soggy? Sunny (Hot!) Sunday Could Salvage Outdoor Weekend Plans

There's still some probable rain to go, but there will be plenty of opportunities to fire up the grill and enjoy the sun come Sunday.

There's still a good chance for more sogginess and storms continuing into Saturday night for and Dakota County. 

And then comes the heat.

You should have plenty of chances to fire up the grill on Sunday and enjoy the outdoors for Memorial Day Weekend. Of course, with temperatures forecast in the 90s, you might want to grill in the shade and have a cooler of frosty beverages nearby as well.
