Minneapolis, MN – Minnesota residents can expect a chilly start to the week, with snow chances and colder temperatures dominating the forecast. Monday will see partly sunny skies and a high near 30°F, but temperatures will drop below 10°F by Thursday, bringing gusty winds and icy conditions.
According to the National Weather Service Twin Cities, light snow could develop late Tuesday night into Wednesday, affecting visibility and creating hazardous road conditions. Winds gusting up to 30 mph on Wednesday will further exacerbate travel concerns, particularly along major highways like I-94 and I-35.
Residents are advised to take precautions, including winterizing vehicles and stocking up on essentials. While snow accumulations are expected to remain light, blustery conditions could create slick roads during the morning commute midweek. Plan ahead by checking real-time road conditions through MnDOT updates.
The remainder of the week sees a return to Arctic air, with Thursday’s high struggling to reach 20°F. Overnight lows will dip near zero, with wind chills making it feel significantly colder. Those venturing outdoors should dress in layers, as frostbite can occur within minutes in extreme conditions.
Looking further ahead, conditions may moderate slightly into next weekend, but below-average temperatures are expected to persist. Stay updated on the latest forecasts through local weather alerts and prepare for extended cold as winter settles into the region.
