Duluth, MN – Residents in the Duluth area should prepare for frost conditions as cooler weather approaches. A cold front moving through on Monday will bring temperatures down, raising the chance of frost overnight Tuesday into Wednesday.
According to the National Weather Service (NWS) in Duluth, frost is likely in the Northland area with a 30-60% chance. The NWS warns that widespread frost could affect plants and crops across the region. The cold front will bring cooler, more fall-like conditions throughout the workweek. Tuesday night into Wednesday morning presents the highest frost risk, especially in areas away from Lake Superior, where east winds will moderate temperatures slightly.
The NWS also noted that the region will experience dry humidity, potentially creating near-critical fire weather conditions until Wednesday. If you live in areas prone to frost, it’s recommended to cover sensitive plants and take additional precautions as colder temperatures set in.
By Wednesday morning, temperatures could drop into the low 40s, with some areas seeing the upper 30s, making frost a serious possibility for many residents.
