Minnesota – Light snowflakes swirl across the Twin Cities this morning, briefly coating grassy areas and leaving wet pavement on I-94 and I-35W. Temperatures hover near 34°F, just cold enough for slick spots on bridges and untreated roads as drivers head out.
According to the National Weather Service in the Twin Cities, scattered snow showers continue through the morning with about a 40% chance of precipitation. Minor accumulation remains limited, but visibility may briefly drop in passing bursts. Conditions improve quickly by midday as clouds break and drier air moves in.
Minneapolis, St. Paul, and Bloomington will see skies turn partly sunny later today, but the cold air lingers. Temperatures only reach the upper 40s before falling sharply tonight. By early Monday morning, lows near 28°F raise concerns for patchy frost and isolated icy spots, especially where melted snow refreezes. Drivers should watch for flash freezing on ramps and overpasses.
Monday begins a steady turnaround with sunshine and highs near 60°F. Winds shift and bring warmer air into the region. By Tuesday, temperatures surge into the low 70s under clear skies. The warmup accelerates into Wednesday, when highs approach 80°F, creating a dramatic spring swing in just 48 hours.
Late week introduces slight rain chances, with scattered showers and possible thunderstorms returning Thursday into Friday. No severe weather is expected now, but changing temperatures could fuel stronger systems later.
