Mostly Cloudy end of the week. Quite Cool Thursday.

Regional View





A Cooler and relatively Midweek is whats in store for the Upper Midwest. Cool air flowing over Lake Superior Thursday may bring lake effect snows to Northern WI and Upper Michigan Thursday. Then Friday a clipper system will pass to our north bringing snow to Northern Minnesota. Warmer air will start to surge into the region Friday.







Local View

Locally we can expect a quiet, cloudy end to the week. Wednesday a cold front will pass through causing a much colder day Thursday, highs will barely make it out of the low 30s. A relatively thick snow pack remains across the area, this couple with a colder air mass, some places may not top 32 on Thursday. Friday it will be much warmer, highs should begin to rise to the upper 30s. We should expect a dry next 3 days.


Wednesday, Mostly Cloudy, Highs in the mid 30s, a bit breezy. Dense fog possible early. Wednesday Night, Much cooler, Partly Cloudy lows in the low to mid 20s.

Thursday, Cool! Mostly Cloudy to Partly Sunny, highs in the low 30s, some spots may remain in the upper 20s. Thursday Night. Partly Cloudy, lows in the low mid 20s.

Friday, Mostly Cloudy, some clearing. Highs in the mid to upper 30s. Friday Night, Partly Cloudy, lows in the mid 20s

Looking Ahead

The weekend immediately following the next 3 days looks to start of quit and cool Saturday. Sunday looks a bit more interesting as a strong system pushes North. It looks to bring temps warm enough for light rain Sunday then Monday cooler air follows behind it and it turns to light snow. Then a much more significant system pulls in right in time for the Thanksgiving Holiday. Right now it looks to bring Significant Snow Somewhere in the Upper Midwest. Right now it is favoring Eastern Minnesota and Western Wisconsin, but things may change. High wind and blowing snow may also be a factor with this system. Right behind in on the 26th. the coldest air of season blowing in a strong winds looks to follow it with highs being lucky if they get out of the teens for highs, lows may approach 0.F. Cold air looks to remain in tacked for the rest of the month of November. Behind this snow looks to be a possibility again by the very end of the month.
