The state will enjoy a bright day, with temperatures climbing into the 60s and even touching the 70s in some spots. Light clouds will drift across the sky, letting sunshine filter through. Winds stay calm, coming from the south or west at just five to ten miles per hour.

The Twin Cities region should see temperatures rise to about 70 degrees, noticeably warmer than the usual mid‑40s. The normal average for this time of year is around 46 degrees, so the heat will feel like a pleasant surprise.

As night falls on Wednesday, a cold front moves in. Clouds grow thicker and light rain will begin to fall over central Minnesota during the night. Temperatures will drop, reaching the lower 40s by morning.

Thursday’s weather will start with a quick burst of rain that clears out early in the day. Some light showers may linger into the afternoon, but conditions will become breezy and cooler as temperatures fall through the day. By evening, the low‑40s will be common, especially for commuters heading home.

Friday will bring a clearer sky but cooler temperatures. Highs will stay in the low 40s, and there may be a chance of more showers. Over the weekend, temperatures will rebound. Saturday will see a rise into the 50s, and Sunday could reach the mid‑ to upper 60s as the sun returns.
