A warmup is already on the way, however, with highs in the 70s across southern Minnesota by Friday.
Friday is the last day of September and there’s no rain in sight so it’s likely this will go down as the driest September on record according to the National Weather Service.

The very warm and dry September also has an impact on fall colors. This year is quite a bit behind the last two years.
