Temperatures warm back into the 20s for most Wednesday. Thursday will be the warmest day with highs near 40 degrees. We cool off just a bit Friday and Saturday before temperatures warm back up. 

Seasonable temps return Wednesday; warmer-than-normal Thursday 

Portions of the state are waking up to some scattered light snow showers, none of which is significant. We’ll see a mix of clouds and sun Wednesday with temperatures warming back into the 20s for most of the state. 

Thursday will be even warmer and well above normal with highs in the 30s and even 40s in portions of southern Minnesota with partly cloudy skies south and more clouds north. 

A couple bursts of light snow are possible Wednesday night and Thursday night in mostly just northeastern Minnesota and western Wisconsin while most of the state will remain dry.

Total snowfall could be as high as 1 to 3 inches in the Arrowhead region through early Friday. 

A cold front slides through Thursday night causing temps to fall through the day Friday. We’ll see temperatures start in the 30s across southern Minnesota and fall into the 20s by late in the day. 

Northern Minnesota will remain mostly in the teens. Highs Saturday will be mostly in the 20s with some teens in the Arrowhead. Southwestern Minnesota will still be near 40 degrees. 

Next week looks to continue the overall mild pattern with highs in the 30s and even some 40s again.
