Quiet, mostly sunny Friday, with rain chances starting Saturday night

Another pleasant day across the Duluth area, with mainly sunny skies expected for Friday. Easterly winds at 5-10 mph will keep lakeside spots a bit cooler, with temperatures only topping out in the upper 60s. On Friday night we will see partly cloudy skies as temperatures cool to near 50 degrees.

Saturday will then start dry and mostly cloudy, but as we head through the day, skies will turn increasingly overcast, with east-southeast winds at 10-15 mph. Rain chances begin later in the day, with better chances for more scattered to even widespread rain arriving Saturday night.

There will be a more active pattern across the region for Father's Day and beyond. That will mean round after round of precipitation chances. Not a washout rain for any given day, but scattered showers and thunderstorms will be possible Sunday through much of next week. A couple of those storms could be slightly on the stronger side at times, but it remains too early to iron out any details yet. Otherwise, temperatures look to trend in the lower 70s.
