Light snow is tapering off across northern Minnesota this Friday morning. Winter weather advisories mainly for snow and some blowing snow continue until 9 a.m. for northwestern Minnesota and until noon for the northeast.

Farther south, a few flurries might break out across the southern half of the state.

Much colder air blew in on Thursday. Afternoon high temperatures on Friday will be just from the mid 20s to the low 30s with a raw northwest breeze. The Twin Cities should see a high of just around 33 with a wind of 15 to 25 mph. Flurries are possible but accumulation is unlikely.

Temperatures will not warm for the weekend. But the good news is that the wind will weaken Friday night and remain light for the weekend.

The cold air will hang around all next week.

Periods of light snow are possible early next week, but no major storms are likely.
