Getting Ready for a Sunny Weekend!
Categories: Weather Blog, Weather Video
The rain last night was pretty unimpressive. In Duluth, officially we got .10″ of rain. I’m happy for the rain we did get, but a half inch would have been preferable. But, now we will move on to the next chapter in our continuing weather story! We start this Friday with cloudy skies and light SW winds. It will stay…

Early this morning, there was an impressive cluster of showers and thunderstorms rumbling across the western border of Minnesota, courtesy of North and South Dakota. As I said on our morning show, if those storms stay together, we could get some impressive rainfall amounts in the Twin Ports later in the day. But, I also mentioned that they had a…
Timing is everything in weather. If we can get some rain on Thursday, then get high pressure back in time for the weekend, that pretty much makes everyone happy. Yes, unless you are pouring concrete or roofing today. I get it. But, the weekend will be great for everyone, if we get the rain out of the way today! We…

The days area getting shorter. The average daytime high temp is getting lower. And the Minnesota State Fair starts tomorrow. Those are all sure signs that fall is approaching. There is no way around it. But it will still feel quite summer-like for the next several days, so let’s enjoy it! High pressure will again bring us more sunshine than…

It’s hard to complain about a week in August that is full of sunny days with highs in the 70s. So, I’m just going to enjoy it, and say, “Thanks!” The high pressure situated over us will continue to bring us sunshine, light winds, and perfect temperatures. The average high for today is 76. While we will be a tad…

I thought it was great that we got 1.25″ of rain on Thursday! That was much appreciated by my dry, dusty lawn that I mowed on Wednesday. We had been pretty dry for about two weeks, so the moisture was quite welcome. But now, it’s time for the weekend, and with half of August in the rearview mirror, we need…

After four straight days of sunshine and August warmth, it’s time to green up the Northland with an inch or so of much needed moisture. And, why not? Most of us are at work for the next two days, and as long as the weekend weather looks great (which it does!), bring on some rain to help the grass, flowers…

We had a hot end to July and a cooler than normal start to August. This week, as we head into the middle of the month, it’s a return to typical summer heat. The average high for today is 77 degrees. And that is right about where we will be for the next three days. A large, strong area of…

The average high for this time of year is 77 degrees. We haven’t seen a day that warm since last week! After a couple more cool and breezy days, we will finally get back up to seasonal temperatures starting with the second half of the coming weekend. A low pressure system stalled over the eastern Great Lakes region will keep…

We went a couple weeks with above average temps and sweaty dewpoints. Now, we’re going thru a few days of well below normal high temps. The average high for today is 77 degrees. We won’t see that til next week. It’s hard to find that “Goldilocks weather,” where everything is just right! We are about to come under the influence…

My lawn has pretty much stopped growing. It’s been plenty warm out, but it’s been so dry these last few weeks, that my grass hasn’t grown in two weeks! I would be just fine if we get a half inch or more of rain in the next 24 hours. Thanks to a low pressure system coming out of the Dakotas,…

After having above average temps all last week, we’ve flipped to the other end of the thermometer, as this week will be mostly below average temps. The average high for today is 78 degrees, and we will be a bit below that, with a high of about 74. The rest of the week we’ll have high temps between 68 and…

Remember the last couple weeks, when each day was hazy, hot and humid, with dewpoints reaching the low 70’s? That is so yesterday’s weather! That airmass has been replaced with Canadian high pressure that is bringing our high temps down to the 70’s (where they should be), and dewpoints down into the 50’s, which is much more comfortable for all…

July was a hot one! And, it felt like the heat and humidity would never end. But we are now past the peak heating period of summer, and the days are getting shorter. As a result, our seemingly endless streak of hazy, hot and humid days is finally coming to an end. This weekend, two cool fronts will make the…

The month of July 2024 let us know what summer is supposed to feel like. It was hot, it was humid, and it made us long for just a little bit of fall in the air. Now that we’ve flipped the page into August, that cool change is just a couple days away. A low pressure system to our south…
