Western Minnesota will stay milder overnight with lows in the mid to upper 40s under thicker cloud cover, while eastern Minnesota will cool a bit more, dipping into the upper 30s to low 40s under clearer skies.

Winds will be breezy from the south-southwest at the start of the work week.
By Monday, temperatures will climb into the mid to upper 50s ahead of the approaching weather system.
Rain chances will increase by late afternoon in western Minnesota, spreading eastward through the evening and eventually reaching the Twin Cities metro area later at night.
Rainfall totals will be noticeable, with most areas receiving around 0.5 inch, and a few isolated locations possibly seeing slightly more than an inch in northwestern Minnesota.
Behind the system, temperatures will remain near seasonal levels, with highs in the upper 40s to low 50s as October comes to a close.
