Highs in the 40s to start the week; rain or snow for Minn. on Wednesday?

Last Monday the Twin Cities high temperature was 18 degrees. Our temps will be much more comfortable this Monday and you’ll probably like our Tuesday and Wednesday temperatures too. Some spots could see rain or a wintry mix Monday and Monday night. We’ll also take a look at a potential swath of rain and snow Wednesday into early Thursday.
