Blustery today with morning flurries, mild weekend temps

Good Saturday morning! We’re waking up to a mild late January morning across Minnesota and Wisconsin. Morning temperatures are in the mid to low-20s, which is right on point with our average highs for today. Daytime temperatures don’t warm up much, with a high of 27 degrees today for the metro.

Despite the mild Saturday temperatures, blustery west-northwesterly winds today will keep you wanting all the winter layers on today. With gusts to 35 to 40 mph this afternoon, it’ll feel like the single digits.

Count on a few flurries this morning with mostly cloudy skies. By the afternoon we chip away at cloud cover with partly cloudy skies. Northern Minnesota trends cloudier with flurries and light snow showers possible this afternoon. Blowing and drifting snow across far northwestern Minnesota will lead to slick travel towards Roseau to Grand Forks will lead to slick travel.

Seasonable overnight lows tonight mean we’re back in the single digits with a low of 8° for the Twin Cities. Sunday is the pick of the weekend with mostly sunny skies and highs near 30°.

Have a wonderful day!
