Red River rising to record levels for October
At the northwest Minnesota town of Oslo, the Red River has risen to major flood stage. Elsewhere on the river’s northward path, the Red and many of its tributaries are reaching moderate flood stage.
Flakes were followed by a nice warm-up last October, will we do it again?
Our weekend featured chilly temps, gusty winds and some snow showers and rain showers. It has to get nicer, doesn’t it? Milder temps are in the forecast this week, but some areas will see rain showers or snow showers before the warmest temperatures arrive.
A slow-moving low pressure system will give us a chilly and breezy Sunday, with some on and off snow showers and rain showers. Monday is looking better and temperatures will be rebounding nicely later this week. We also have a fall color update.
Minnesotans had to deal with some snowflakes on Saturday, but the snow began Thursday and lasted into Saturday in parts of North Dakota., with some incredible snow totals. Our Sunday will be less flaky than Saturday in Minnesota, and we’ll see temperatures rebound as we go through this coming week.
