Gorgeous Holiday Weekend, But We Need Some Rain

A gorgeous Memorial Day weekend is on tap, with highs in the low to mid-80s and plenty of sunshine for the unofficial start of summer. However, despite the abundance of snow last winter, most of central and northern Minnesota is 1-2"+ below average rainfall-wise for May. - D.J. Kayser


Periods Of Rain The Next Several Days

Quiet Sunday - Watching Ice, Rain & Snow For Sunday Night Into Monday

Cold Friday With A Light Snow Chance Late - Warmer Weekend

Dropping Temperatures Thursday, But A Warm Up In Store For The Weekend
