Anomalous warmth continues Tuesday and throughout the week. We’ll continue to see filtered sun through high clouds. The weekend could bring some spotty showers and cooler weather.

Our string of 80-degree days continues 

It’ll be another warm one Tuesday, although a few degrees cooler for most with increased cloud cover filtering the sunshine out. Highs will be well into the 80s across southern and western Minnesota with 70s north.

There’s a slight chance of a sprinkle or two in central Minnesota with a weak, upper-level disturbance moving through.

By Friday, temperatures will be even warmer ahead of changes brewing for the weekend. Highs will be near 90 degrees again in southwestern Minnesota with upper 80s in the Twin Cities. The record high Friday is 90 in the Twin Cities and 89 on Saturday. Both records could be close to falling.
