The Storm Prediction Center has a Slight Risk of severe thunderstorms over Brainerd today, with a 15% chance of damaging winds and large hail. All storms will have frequent lightning, so be sure to stay weather aware and know where you would go for shelter when you hear a thunderstorm approaching.
By Doug Schneider Some clouds and light fog will start the day at Brainerd International Raceway. The clouds should decrease somewhat later in the morning, which should allow temperatures to rise into the lower 80s. It will also become breezy, with south winds around 15 mph by early afternoon. Some wind gusts of 20 to 25 mph may be possible as well. Showers and thunderstorms are expected in the afternoon and evening. My best estimate of the time of arrival of storms is between 3 pm and 5 pm, but it is possible that they could arrive as early as 2 pm. Of course, whether they arrive at 2 pm or 3 pm makes all the difference for a wet race or a dry race. I'm afraid I can't pin it down that precisely, so you'll have to keep an eye on the radar as watch how things develop this afternoon.
