Thursday will be cooler than normal once again but with some afternoon sunshine peeking out.
We’re then in for a milder stretch Friday into the weekend where temperatures will finally be near normal, which by that point is in the mid-40s for southern Minnesota and near 40 north.
The pattern also looks drier and quieter across most of Minnesota for the next several days, with most precipitation falling to our south and southeast.
