Tuesday brings another mild and mostly sunny day

Southern Minnesota may see light morning rain

Most of Minnesota sees another dry day Tuesday, and the seasonable temperatures in the 70s and low 80s continue.

Tuesday’s forecast

High pressure dominates the Minnesota weather pattern once more Tuesday, bringing predominantly clear skies and light winds overnight.

Under those conditions, morning temperatures ranged from 40s north to a few 60s south. A few areas of fog developed again, primarily around the Arrowhead, and that fog will lift by midmorning

The one exception to the dry and sunny skies expected across the state is in southern Minnesota. A storm clipping to the south is bringing a few more clouds through the morning, and a few showers are possible right along the Iowa border.

Highs stay very close to average for the end of August, with most of the state in the mid-70s to low 80s.

Temperatures drop slightly by the end of the week as a storm returns more clouds and rain to the state.

That extended forecast will be updated around 9 a.m.
