Minneapolis, Minnesota – Scattered rain continues across eastern Minnesota and western Wisconsin this morning, with clearer skies expected by midday. But residents across western Minnesota should brace for more showers and a possible storm moving in tonight through early Tuesday.
According to the National Weather Service Twin Cities, the rain will taper off from west to east today, bringing a temporary break before additional moisture returns. Scattered storms are likely tonight, especially across western Minnesota, with early Tuesday rain chances lingering for the Twin Cities. Highs today range from 50 to 70°F, warming into the low 70s by Tuesday in southern areas.
Drivers should be cautious on slick roads this morning, particularly along I-94 and Highway 52, where early rain could impact visibility and traction. Cooler overnight lows in the 30s to 40s may also create patchy fog in rural zones. While Wednesday offers a brief dry window, another round of rain is likely by Thursday, with a 60% chance of widespread showers across central and eastern Minnesota.
Keep devices charged and umbrellas handy—another storm cycle is on the horizon. Rain chances persist through Thursday night, and additional weather alerts may be issued.
