Welcome to San Diego.

Our Minnesota air mass this week will feel like San Diego in terms of temperature and humidity. Highs in the 70s and dew points in the 40s are nearly ideal for human comfort this week. We’ll have very little to complain about when it comes to weather around these parts.

Tuesday brings highs in the 70s to our fair state.
