Many Twin Cities residents awoke Monday to their iPhone weather forecasts telling them it’d be in the 80s next week. This would be quite the “weather whiplash.” It’s also highly unlikely. Here’s what’s going on.
Monday will bring flurries and clouds north with increasing clouds south. Snow and rain develop Tuesday with significant snowfall for much of northern and west central Minnesota into Wednesday. It’ll then be colder before warming up into the weekend.
We have one more quiet day Monday before the next big storm system brings lots of moisture to Minnesota again Tuesday. Snow will develop in central and northern Minnesota Tuesday morning with rain developing south. Significant snow will fall north and west into Wednesday.
Cleanup continues throughout Minnesota on Sunday after an April Fools’ Day snowstorm damaged trees, caused power outages, and made travel difficult across the region.
Southerly winds will deliver milder temps Sunday afternoon. We have details on that and the winter storm that’ll affect much of Minnesota Tuesday and Wednesday.
Spotty light freezing rain or a wintry mix will be possible this Sunday morning, then precipitation chances linger in northern Minnesota Sunday afternoon. Temps will be a bit milder, but winds will be gusty.
