The spring or vernal equinox is at 10:33 a.m. Sunday morning, and fittingly it will be near 60 degrees once again for many in southern Minnesota. 

High temperatures should again be well into the 50s, even near 60 for the southern half of Minnesota Monday. We’ll then keep an eye on a storm system that will bring some developing rain showers Tuesday that could turn to some snow Tuesday night into early Wednesday.
