Temps will be near-normal Saturday before warming back above freezing Sunday into next week. Northern Minnesota will see some light snow and freezing drizzle Saturday night.

Mild air moves back in after a cooler Saturday 

It’s a cold start up north with early morning temperatures in the teens below zero for some places in northeast Minnesota. We’ll see increasing clouds and near-normal temperatures in the 20s for most. 

A weak clipper system will deliver some light snow showers and patchy freezing drizzle late Saturday into Saturday night across mainly northern Minnesota into northwest Wisconsin. 

Up to one inch of snow could fall, mainly in the arrowhead up to the international border with just flurries farther south and west. 

We’ll also have to watch for some potential icy spots with patchy freezing drizzle both Saturday and Sunday nights, again mainly in northern Minnesota.

Temperatures warm back above freezing for southern Minnesota Sunday. Southwest Minnesota will see 40s return.

Monday will be our warmest day of the upcoming week with 40s across southern Minnesota. Southwest Minnesota will be in the 50s, close to 60. If Pipestone reaches 60-degrees it would be a record for the date. 

There will be other light precipitation chances through the week with some forecast models bringing a system into the region potentially later in the week.
