Wednesday Morning Northland Forecast: 6/11/2025

Sunny and Warm Today!

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

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.

Smoky Weekend

Yes, the air is very smoky. And, it’s particularly noticeable in the mornings, and in the evenings. It makes for weird sky colors in the morning, and some spectacular sunsets in the evenings.

A Chilly Friday Night

We have already had some warm weather in May. But this weekend will not feel like it. We have a Frost Advisory for the entire viewing area tonight; Minnesota, Wisconsin, and the U.P. of Michigan. We will see lows down toward 30 degrees in some low spots, and some upper 20s aren’t out of the question, either. Even tomorrow night…
