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

.DAY ONE...Today and Tonight

There is a marginal risk, level 1 out of 5, for severe storms
this afternoon and evening across the Northland. The primary
threat is damaging winds. Secondary threats are large hail and an
isolated tornado.

Areas of heavy rain of 2 inches or more from thunderstorms could
also lead to local ponding of water or minor flash flooding,
especially along the North Shore and into parts of northwest
Wisconsin.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Friday through Wednesday

Near-critical fire weather conditions may develop Friday into the
weekend.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

Skywarn spotters are encouraged to report hail of any size and
rainfall amounts to the National Weather Service.

For the month of April we are actively recruiting for CoCoRaHS,

would like to volunteer to become a regular reporter of rain hail
and snow, please visit https://www.cocorahs.org for more

The National Weather Service in Duluth, MN is proposing to
discontinue the Hazardous Weather Outlook product on or around
May 11 2026 because it is a redundant product. Please note that
no other products including forecasts, warnings, and NOAA Weather
Radio will be changing, only the Hazardous Weather Outlook
product is proposed to be discontinued. Feedback on the proposal
to discontinue the Hazardous Weather Outlook is open through May
11. Please email nws.duluth@noaa.gov with your feedback. Again to
repeat, NOAA Weather Radio is not going away and we will continue
to issue forecasts and warnings.
