Weather and Climate News

More than half of the days in August have produced cooler than normal temperatures. But despite the cooler than normal readings for the state, Minnesota did not report the nation’s lowest temperature even once during the month.
A breezy Thursday afternoon; northern Minn. could see a passing sprinkle
Our Thursday afternoon will be breezy with plenty of sun in most areas. Parts of northern Minnesota could see a passing sprinkle. Florida, meanwhile, is bracing for Hurricane Dorian.
Pleasant Wednesday; some showers Wednesday night
Wednesday will be pleasant with thinning clouds north of the metro area. Winds will be gusty. Showers are likely for northern and possibly east central Minnesota Wednesday night into Thursday morning before dry weather returns for the rest of the week.
Winds will pick up on Tuesday, and high temperatures will be well below normal. The best chance of showers and isolated thunderstorms will be in the northern half of Minnesota, but we could see a shower and isolated thunderstorm in the Twin Cities metro area Tuesday afternoon.
