Friday Evening Northland Forecast: 6/27/2025

Some Storms Out West
Karl Spring,

A week ago tonight, we had some wild weather here in the Twin Ports. A late night filled with showers, thunderstorms, and even a few tornado sightings (mainly radar indicated). In the 50 years I’ve been watching the weather in Minnesota, I have learned that weather tends to go in 7-day cycles at this latitude. Not always, of course, but…

Wednesday Morning Northland Forecast: 6/18/2025

A Sunny Wednesday
Karl Spring,

The Summer Solstice arrives on Friday, at 9:42 pm (Duluth time). That is when the sun takes its northernmost path in the sky, giving us the longest day of the year. This will be the beginning of “Astronomical Summer,” as opposed to “Meteorological Summer,” which started on June 1st. This coming weekend is also pretty famous for something else, and…

A Calmer Day
Karl Spring,

The showers finally got here yesterday, along with thunderstorms, torrential rains, and a few tornadoes. Duluth only got .12″ of rain, and Superior a measly .07″. But to our north, Grand Rapids got 1.25″ of rain, and Hibbing got hit with 2.36″ of rain last evening, producing some flooding in the area. They could use a couple dry days of…

Storms Out West Heading This Way
Karl Spring,

As we all get ready to take on another Monday, showers and thunderstorms are already all fired up, and rumbling across eastern North Dakota. They will soon move across the Red River Valley, and head into western Minnesota, on their way to the Northland. Things will stay quiet in our area until lunchtime, but then it will be time to…

Cloudy, Cool, Windy & Wet Weekend
Karl Spring,

This weekend will not feel very summer-like. The average high for today is 72 degrees. We will have highs in the 50s today and Saturday, and in the low 60s on Sunday. We won’t get back to the 70s until Monday.  Thanks to a strong low pressure system to our southwest, we are going to stay mainly cloudy, cool, windy…

Thursday Morning Northland Forecast: 6/12/2025

Back to the 50s
Karl Spring,

We hit 74 degrees for a high yesterday, and it felt great! Our average high is only 71, so we were just a touch above average…which I always think is good! Except for some Canadian wildfire smoke that came in after noon yesterday, it was a very nice day! Now, we’re going to take a few steps backwards, in the…

Sunny and Warm Today!
Karl Spring,

Today will be a perfect June day! The average high for today is 71, and we will be a touch above that, with a high of 74 under sunny skies! What a great day to spend some time on the Lakewalk, or one of our local golf courses, or just hanging out in the backyard. These are the days we…

A Half Dry Weekend
Karl Spring,

After getting almost a half inch of rain earlier today (Friday), the skies are clearing out now, and any smoke that came in overnight is about to head off to the northeast, too. We have an air quality alert til 7oo pm today, for most of northeast Minnesota, but that problem is going to evaporate quickly, as cool, dry and…

Blue Skies Are Back
Karl Spring,

Thank you, Jetstream! The Air Quality Alerts for Minnesota and Wisconsin have been allowed to expire. There is one more alert in effect for the rest of today, for Gogebic and Ontonagon counties in the far western portion of the U.P. of Michigan. Otherwise, we have the ‘all clear,’ for now. It is likely that we’ll be feeling the effects…
