MINNESOTA, USA — It's surprisingly cool Friday morning with a few spots all the way down in the upper 30s. Highs will quickly warm up into the low 70s with breezy conditions as winds shift out of the northwest behind a cold front this afternoon.
A few spotty storms are expected to develop around the early afternoon. Most of us will stay dry but it cannot be ruled out during the PM hours Friday.
Mother's Day weekend and fishing opener look absolutely perfect! Sunny skies with highs around 70 on Saturday and a chance at 80 by Mother's Day. The only chance of rain will arrive Sunday afternoon but looks to be very spotty and won't wreck plans.
After cooling into the lower 60s Thursday, we warm back to near 70 this upcoming weekend. Mother's Day weekend looks mostly dry, with isolated showers possible Sunday afternoon.
