From snowflakes to springlike: Weekend weather swings ahead
This weekend will bring a classic taste of early March in Minnesota — from snow showers and a cooler Saturday to a warm surge that could bring the first 60-degree reading of the year in the Twin Cities, along with the return of daylight saving time on Sunday.
Wet Friday with a transition to snow overnight, then mild again
Our latest storm system is bringing a variety of precipitation types Friday into Saturday. Saturday will be cooler with very mild air back by Sunday. Next week looks cooler and active. 
Spring storms and the power of the jet stream
Spring is a season of dramatic weather across the United States and other midlatitude regions. Rapid shifts between lingering winter cold and returning warm air often produce powerful spring storm systems.
Mild temperatures continue. Incoming classic spring storm Friday
Thursday will be another mild and mostly dry day. An incoming storm system will bring rain and thunder Friday with potential snow Friday night. 
Even warmer days ahead with an eye on a Friday storm system
Temperatures Wednesday will average 20 degrees above normal. The anomalous warmth persists through Monday. We’re still watching a Friday storm system that will deliver rain and snow.
