Above average Labor Day weekend forecast
Labor Day is the unofficial last day of summer for many in Minnesota. The weekend looks better than average across the state.
Rain moves out Friday, but fog and drizzle stick around for much of the state. By Saturday, however, sunshine returns and the holiday weekend is looking pleasant.
Friday’s rain will be replaced by an area of drizzle and fog across much of Minnesota by the afternoon.
Weekend forecast: Mostly dry; Saturday shower chance far north
It’ll feel like September this weekend. Most of us won’t see any rain on Saturday or Sunday. We have the details for you.
Last week’s heavy rain across much of Minnesota made a dent in the drought for most of the state. A storm Thursday and Friday brings a renewed rain chance to some of the areas that still desperately need precipitation. 
Needed rain that spreads across Minnesota throughout the day Thursday will also be responsible for keeping temperatures cooler.
