Nearly perfect Halloween 2024 weather?
Our weather looks nearly ideal for trick-or-treaters on Halloween night.
Sunshine, high pressure return Friday; roller coaster temps ahead
After some lovely and needed rain, sunshine returns for Friday as cooler high pressure sets in. It will be a frosty Friday night before temperatures warm back into the 70s by Monday. 
Rain is on its way. Cooler air for the weekend ahead
Thursday will be briefly warmer ahead of the next cool front and disturbance that will develop much-needed rain showers later in the day. Cooler air returns for Friday and Saturday. 
Seasonable sunny Wednesday. Rain in the forecast ahead
Expect sunshine and seasonal temperatures on Wednesday, with highs returning to the 40s and 50s across the state. The first of two cold fronts brought rain to northern Minnesota on Tuesday, and the next front on Thursday is expected to bring more widespread showers.
Roller coaster temperatures continue into next week
Cooler, near-normal temperatures are in place Wednesday but Thursday will be milder before cooling off for Friday. Thursday also brings a decent chance at light rain showers later in the day.
