Duluth, MN – Snow showers are set to return to Duluth on Thursday, bringing up to 2 inches of accumulation and keeping temperatures in the teens. Residents should prepare for slippery road conditions, especially along the North Shore, as light lake-effect snow develops.
According to the National Weather Service in Duluth, light flurries are likely to start overnight into Thursday morning, intensifying by the afternoon. A quick-moving clipper system is forecasted to bring 0.5 to 2 inches of snow through Thursday night. Highs on Thursday will hover near 16°F with wind chills dipping into single digits.
The weather is expected to improve Friday with blustery but dry conditions. Daytime highs will reach around 20°F, though northwest winds could produce gusts up to 15 mph. The weekend will offer a slight warm-up, with Saturday seeing highs of 17°F under partly sunny skies. However, light snow may return Saturday night into Sunday, with another 20–40% chance of snow accumulation.
Drivers are urged to exercise caution, particularly on US Highway 61, where icy conditions and reduced visibility are possible during snowfall. Those traveling should allow extra time and monitor local forecasts for updates.
Plan ahead to dress warmly and avoid prolonged exposure to the cold. With temperatures remaining well below freezing through the weekend, frostbite risk remains a concern.
