It won’t be as cold Monday, but overall temperatures will remain well below normal all this week. A clipper brings some light snow to northern Minnesota later Monday. 
Temperatures climb above zero after frigid stretch; another chilly night ahead
Despite temperatures rising above zero Sunday, a cold front will move through Sunday night, bringing another surge of Arctic air and prompting extreme cold warnings and cold weather advisories across the region.
Above-zero stretch arrives after days of subzero cold
After nearly 72 hours of subzero temperatures in the Twin Cities, readings are finally expected to climb above zero Sunday, though frigid wind chills will return overnight. Light snow is possible Monday night in northern Minnesota, while the rest of the week is forecast to remain cold and mostly quiet.
Extreme cold holds through weekend, brief warmup Sunday
