Minneapolis, MN – Minnesotans can expect a weather whiplash over the coming days, with a sunny, mild weekend giving way to snow and freezing temperatures on Monday. Highs on Saturday will climb to the mid-40s, offering a brief reprieve from the recent bitter cold.
According to the National Weather Service, the warm spell will continue into Sunday with highs near 42 degrees, but a southeast wind will bring clouds Sunday night. Snow showers are expected Monday afternoon, with temperatures dipping to the upper teens by Monday night. Commuters should prepare for slick roads and possible delays.
On Tuesday, highs will only reach 24 degrees, with gusty northwest winds keeping wind chills in the single digits. The cold snap will persist into midweek, with highs on Wednesday near 18 degrees and overnight lows plummeting into the low teens.
Drivers are urged to monitor weather updates and ensure vehicles are winter-ready, as icy conditions could develop quickly on roadways like I-94 and I-35 during Monday’s snow. Residents should also keep an eye on forecasts for any potential snow accumulation updates.
Enjoy the sunshine and warmer weather this weekend, but brace for winter’s return early next week. Stay informed and plan ahead for changing conditions.
