MINNESOTA, USA — High pressure remains in control of our weather over the next few days. This will bring wall-to-wall sunshine and warmer-than-average temperatures.
Winds will stay on the breezy side Thursday afternoon out of the south-southeast at 10-15 mph. Highs will range from the middle to upper 80s with mostly sunny skies.
Our warm weather pattern will begin to break down later this week into the weekend with a small chance for showers returning Saturday — mainly east of the metro in western Wisconsin. This is residual moisture from the remnants of Hurricane Francine. Here is your Friday forecast for the metro which is a tad cooler than Thursday with a little more of an afternoon breeze.
Otherwise, temperatures stay mild into early next week. Expect better chances for rain by next Wednesday as a more active pattern develops.
