Friday Evening Northland Forecast: 11/22/2024

Mild Weekend Forecast

The average high and low temp for today is 34 and 19. All this weekend, we will be above those temps. But, starting on Monday, we will be below those numbers for the whole week. We are turning another page, as we head toward winter (which is still 29 days away). One good thing about November, so far, is that…

Friday Morning Morthland Forecast: 11/22/2024

Happy Friday morning, Northland! We have almost made it to the weekend, and it has been a pretty wild week in weather. We got to see record breaking rain, some strong winds, and even snow for some of us. As we make it into the weekend, the weather will calm down a bit, with the main things being some lingering…

Thursday Morning Northland Forecast: 11/21/2024

Happy Thursday morning, Northland! Yesterday, a lot of us got to see a little bit of snow, as scattered snow showers persisted into the evening hours. For some of us that saw decent snowfall from these showers, it even stuck onto certain surfaces. Even though it wasn’t much, seeing some snow is always exciting, especially early in the season! Looking…

Wednesday Morning Northland Forecast: 11/20/2000

Good morning, Northland! The rain has moved on out, but it definitely made an impact, with multiple areas seeing record rainfall for November 19. This includes Duluth, with a new record of 1.31″ for November 19 passing the old 1983 record of 1.23″, and other areas as well including International Falls, Brainerd, and Hibbing. International Falls substantially broke the November…

Tuesday Morning Northland Forecast: 11/19/2024

Happy Tuesday morning, Northland! The rain and wind moved into the area yesterday evening and continues into this morning but will subside as we move into the afternoon.

Rain Tonight

Good morning, Northland! It is clear calm for this morning to start the week, but things are looking to really change as the day goes forward. As we get closer to noon today, clouds will begin to move into the area and the winds will start to shift from coming out of the south to be out of the east….

Friday Evening Northland Forecast: 11/15/2024

A Windy Weekend

We have been quite fortunate to have had the mild autumn we’ve enjoyed so far. While we haven’t had record warmth, it has been a handful of degrees above average almost every day, since fall started, back in September. It’s only snowed once in the Twin Ports, so far. So we’ve really had it easy. That may be about to…

Friday Morning Northland Forecast: 11/15/2024

Sunny Friday

Clouds are lingering early this morning but more broken and look to move out to the east as we progress into the afternoon today. Quite mild this morning for many of us, with current temperatures this morning hovering in the low 40’s from the UP and northern Wisconsin, to the mid 30’s in much of the Minnesota side of the…

Thursday Morning Northland Forecast: 11/14/2024

Cloudy Thursday

We all know how dry it’s been in the Northland this year. We continue to be more than 4″ below where we should be, precipitation wise. But, we did get .11″ of rain late last night. And, every little bit helps. Now, the area of rain has moved off to the east, and we are left with a mostly cloudy,…

Wednesday Morning Northland Forecast: 11/13/2024

A Little Rain Possible

Yes, we can use the rain. We continue to have a more than 4″ deficit in the rain barrel for the year, so any contribution, in whatever form, is welcomed. While we might get a little bit of rain later today, it won’t be too impressive. The probability of rain today has been decreasing for the last two days. What…

Tuesday Morning Northland Forecast: 11/12/2024

Windy Tuesday

Yesterday, the winds were quite strong out of the NW. I remember, as the wind about took the door off my car when I opened it at a parking lot in Hermantown (where it’s always windy!). Today, it will be very breezy again, but from a different direction. As the next low pressure system heads this way from the Rockies,…

Windy Monday Morning

Today is Veteran’s Day. Please tell any veteran you see, “Thank you!.” It will be partly cloudy this morning, becoming mostly sunny in the afternoon. It will be quite windy this morning, with north winds 20-30mph, decreasing to 5-10mph late this afternoon. The average high for today is 39 degrees, and we will hit a high about 40. Tonight will…

Friday Morning Northland Forecast: 11/8/2024

Here Comes the Weekend

The average high temp for today is 41 degrees. We will be above normal for high and low temps for at least the next six days. Not by a lot. Nowhere near record territory, but enough above average to make any precipitation we get rain, and not snow. There are two low pressure systems headed our way. One from the…

Wednesday Morning Northland Forecast: 11/6/2024

Sunshine Returns

After two very grey days with some much needed rain, it’s finally time for sunshine to reappear! We got measurable rainfall both Monday and Tuesday, and after some morning fog, we are going to have mostly sunny skies from Wednesday through most of Saturday. The next chance for rain will be late on Saturday, and for most of the day…

Election Day Forecast

The weather will not be a negative factor for Election Day today. At least, not in the Northland. There are numerous showers and thunderstorms rumbling from east Texas to St. Louis to Chicago. But here in the Northland, we will be just fine, except for the chance of a little rain this afternoon. We had .20″ of rain in Duluth…
