Measurable precipitation is not expected today, but a bit of mist or freezing mist is possible in areas with the thickest fog. A stray flurry is also possible. Northeastern Minnesota could see some light snow showers or a mix late Sunday night and early Monday.

Sunday highs will be mainly in the upper 20s to around 30 in Minnesota and western Wisconsin. 

Monday highs will be mainly in the 30s, with a few upper 20s in northeastern Minnesota:

Twin Cities metro area highs are projected to reach the mid 30s on Tuesday, followed by upper 30s Wednesday, mid 30s Thursday and upper 20s on Friday.

Parts of central and north Texas are seeing heavy snow today.
