Don't leaf us this way: Most of Minnesota 'past peak' for fall colors
As the temperatures drop, so do the leaves across the state. Most of Minnesota is “past peak” for fall colors while the Twin Cities, St. Cloud and Rochester are at 75 to 100 of their full peak.
Weekend weather: Unusually warm; rain, thunderstorms possible late Sunday
This weekend will be unusually warm and it’ll be breezy too, especially on Sunday. We could see some rain and hear some thunder late in the weekend. We have details on that, plus an updated fall color map for leaf-peepers.
Trending warmer through Sunday
Warming temperatures through the weekend. Much colder next week.
We are falling for your fall photos!
We asked Minnesotans across the state to show us the autumn landscape outside their front doors. Here are our favorite photos we received.
Fall color peaking around Twin Cities
Colors are bursting around the Twin Cities.
Roller coaster temps; significant rain possible Sunday night
Wednesday will still be cool but warmer than the last two days with highs in the 40s to low 50s. We’re still on track to see 60s by Friday and 70s this weekend in southern Minnesota along with the potential for some decent rains Sunday night into Monday.
The warmup begins; hopeful stormy pattern ahead
After a cold start, Wednesday’s high temps should be several degrees warmer than Tuesday, mainly in the 40s with some upper 30s in the Arrowhead and low 50s in the west and Red River Valley. A stormy pattern develops Sunday night into Monday after a very warm weekend.
