Highs Wednesday will run in the 50s and 60s across Minnesota.

A slight shower chance rolls through Wednesday night into Thursday.

We’ll warm gradually into the upcoming weekend. Highs Saturday will rise into the 60s across most of Minnesota under sunny skies. By Sunday highs will soar well into the 70s with 80 degrees in the west.

It’s still early but NOAA’s GFS model is suggesting a string of days in the 70s is possible for next week.

Has spring finally sprung?
