Near record warmth today

Here’s your Sunday morning forecast for October 20, 2024 from Minnesota’s Weather Authority and Meteorologist Wren Clair.

Good Sunday morning! Patchy fog is locally dense early this morning north of the metro, but as winds pick up out of the southwest the fog mixes out before mid-morning.

We’re near record high temperatures today. The Twin Cities record high for today is 83° set back in 1953, and highs today look to reach 81° for the metro.

With heat and breezy southwesterly winds in place you’ll want to be careful with any outdoor burning as our fire weather risk remains high.

Temperatures stay in the low-80s to kickstart the workweek, but we cool-down midweek with some light rain showers.

Have a wonderful day!
