A cold front is going to bring a change to the weather across the Northern Plains this weekend. In addition to cooler temperatures, that front could bring a few strong to severe thunderstorms to parts of Southeastern North Dakota, Northeastern South Dakota and Western Minnesota Saturday afternoon into Saturday evening. As of right now, I think the biggest severe threat will be large hail, however, strong straight-line wind gusts and locally heavy rain will also be possible.
