Warmer into the weekend, with chances for light rain and a rain/snow mix

Good evening! I hope you’ve been able to enjoy the abundant sunshine today and this evening! While tonight isn’t as cold as last night, and we continue to warm into the mid to low-40s tomorrow, the trade off is we have a cloudier stretch of weather. Overnight tonight we end up with partly to mostly cloudy skies, light and variable winds, as well as some patchy fog. I don’t expect dense fog throughout the morning commute though, as winds pick up early tomorrow morning. Some freezing fog is possible, so please watch out for slick spots that could be present even though roads may look wet.

Tomorrow brings the chance for a few light scattered snow showers across northern Minnesota throughout the day, and light rain showers in central and southern Minnesota into west-central Wisconsin. The timing for the light rain showers for the Twin Cities is more likely afternoon, and especially overnight Friday, with at most 0.1-0.2″ of rainfall (but I do not expect everyone to see even this).

We trend mostly cloudy tomorrow, as well as over the weekend into Monday. A few light late afternoon rain showers are possible Easter Sunday, but the timing of this now looks a little later (more so night) than it did earlier this week. A wintry mix is also possible late overnight Sunday into Monday with some slushy roads possible Monday.

Next week we have a more significant warm-up into the 50s with sunshine returning Tuesday through most of the workweek.

Have a wonderful night!
