Much of Minnesota will be above freezing Wednesday. Freezing drizzle and light rain will be possible north with a wintry mix possible Wednesday night into Thursday across portions of the state.

Above-freezing high temperatures Wednesday and Thursday

Wednesday will see high temperatures above freezing for most of Minnesota yielding a nice opportunity to thaw out some. Cloud cover has returned however and will be with us through likely Friday morning. Temperatures will be 10 or more degrees warmer than normal for a change.

Some freezing drizzle and a wintry mix of precipitation could develop primarily for northern portions of Minnesota Wednesday.

Overnight Wednesday night, southern Minnesota will see temperatures drop to near or above freezing while northern Minnesota will be just below the freezing mark.

Specific temperatures will matter as drizzle and light rain showers potentially develop. Where temperatures are subfreezing, a light icy coating is possible. We’ll have scattered rain and snow showers into Thursday night, turning to mainly snow.

Snowfall accumulations will be possible in a narrow band late Thursday into Thursday night for portions of Minnesota.
