The departing cold front from Saturday night has brought slightly cooler temperatures to the region. Highs on Sunday will range from the 60s to low 70s, with some cooler upper 50s possible in northwest Minnesota. Winds will be breezy out of the west at 10 to 20 mph.

Thicker cloud cover remains over northern Minnesota today as a low-pressure system moves through southern Manitoba. The cloud shield is expected to drift across the state throughout the day while the low continues its path near the border.

More widespread showers will develop near the low, with isolated diurnal showers possible again for Sunday.

Chillier temperatures are expected Monday, with highs in the mid-60s across the state. Isolated diurnal showers remain possible, mainly in eastern Minnesota. Northwest winds will be breezy early but will gradually diminish through the afternoon.
