Southern MN Braces for Weather Shift: Rain to Snow in Days

Get ready, folks in Southern Minnesota! The cozy autumn weather is about to take a frosty turn. We're expecting a significant drop in temperature along with a storm system that will switch things from rain to snow later this week. Rain will start pouring in from the south on Monday afternoon and continue into Tuesday. Monday night could see some heavy downpours. By Tuesday night, the air will start to chill, and there might be light snow showers sticking around until Wednesday. If you're planning outdoor activities this week, you might want to rethink them. Monday will be windy with afternoon rain, with the temperature topping at 52°F. Tuesday will have similar weather but without the rain. It starts to get wintry on Wednesday, with snow showers and a high of 33°F. The cold snap will stay put through the rest of the week, with highs around 30-35°F and mostly cloudy skies. If you're traveling for Thanksgiving, the good news is that the days around the holiday should stay quiet weather-wise, except for a slight chance of snow showers on December 1st. It's important to note that our recent temps have been higher than usual for mid-November. Average highs are typically in the low 40s, and lows drop to the mid-20s. So, this change might feel a bit sudden.
