Weather
A big storm system is moving from the Northern Plains into the Canadian Prairies on Thursday, strengthening as it does so. It will push a cold front through the Plains and into the western Midwest that should produce strong-to-severe thunderstorms from eastern Kansas up into Minnesota and Wisconsin. Colder air will also filter south into the Northern Plains.
