Dry weather returns to Minnesota Thursday, along with above average temperatures for almost all of the state.
Thursday’s forecast
The storm that brought heavy rain to portions of Minnesota Tuesday and Wednesday, along with some snow north, has moved out.
Clouds cleared for much of the state overnight, and morning temperatures are slightly above average with 20s and a few teens north and 30s south.
Most places with any lingering clouds clear by late morning, and under mostly sunny skies highs make it into the 50s for western and southern Minnesota, although cooler 30s stay in place for the Arrowhead.
