For this Saturday, rain cleared in the morning, leaving behind overcast skies. There’s even a chance for some sunshine to break through in the afternoon. With a high of around 41°F, it’s an unusually mild day for December in Minnesota. However, a dense fog advisory remains in effect for parts of the state, including areas from northern to south-central Minnesota, lasting until 10 a.m. Travelers should take extra caution on the roads.
Sunday will continue the mild streak, with temperatures holding steady around 40°F and overcast skies returning. This weekend’s warmth, though, won’t stick around for long. As we step into the new year, colder air is poised to sweep in. By Monday, the high will drop to 36°F, and light snow flurries could appear. Temperatures are expected to plummet below freezing starting Tuesday, with highs in the teens by the end of the workweek. This marks a sharp return to more typical winter weather, with lows likely dipping into the single digits.
This shift in temperatures reminds Minnesotans to prepare for the colder days ahead. If you’ve enjoyed the milder weather to finish out December, take advantage of it this weekend, as the warmth won’t last. Bundle up, drive safely in foggy or icy conditions, and be ready for Minnesota’s signature chill as January kicks off. Stay tuned for updates on potential snow and any significant changes to the forecast.
