A cool first morning of June

Temperatures are definitely cooler to start out this June 1 morning. Temperatures range from the upper 30s earlier in far northern Minnesota to the low 50s south.

Meteorological summer starts cool

I did a recap of meteorological spring 2022. Be sure to check it out here:

No surprise, it was wet and cool overall for Minnesota.

We’ll see sunshine Thursday and Friday too before a chance of showers moves in late Saturday but the outlook overall for the first part of June is for cooler than normal conditions but very pleasant.
