An isolated cell popped up around Fairfax, MN and has been making its way towards Le Sueur this evening. This is along the leading edge of a weak cold front dropping through the region this evening. #mnwx #kare11 #kare11 weather

Now that's a warm up. Strong south winds have moved the mercury 15 to 30 degrees warmer than yesterday at this time.

Strong winds along with low humidity and dry vegetation will create dangerous fire weather conditions. The good news is the winds will die down on Sunday and a good round of rain will arrive Tuesday and Wednesday helping our drought conditions. #mnwx #kare11 #kare11 weather

A gorgeous weekend awaits us! Summer like temperatures and tons of sunshine. It will get a bit windy Saturday afternoon and Sunday will be just as beautiful. Enjoy! #mnwx #wiwx #kare11 #kare11 weather

The showers may be hit or miss tomorrow around the Twin Cities, but the cloud cover will be steady. If you're looking for the #solareclipse , you may notice the clouds getting darker as we approach the peak around 2pm. #mnwx #wiwx #kare11 #kare11 weather #solareclipse 2024

Still windy today, but now we have clouds and scattered showers instead of blue skies. The rain will be on and off today with cold, windy, cloudy conditions. #mnwx #wiwx #kare11 #kare11 weather

A little bit of weather humor for you...

If you're headed to the Minnesota Twins game on Sunday, bring your rain gear. It's going to be colder & windy with passing rain. You might even hear a few rumbles of thunder. #mnwx #kare11 #kare11 weather #MNTwins

It's gonna be a windy weekend in the Twin Cities. Warm on Saturday with lots of sunshine, but widespread showers make their way here by early Sunday along with cooler temperatures. #mnwx #wiwx #kare11 #kare11 weather

Friday is looking beautiful and here's a look ahead to the weekend. Hold onto your hats because it's gonna get windy with showers in the mix of Sunday. Have a great weekend! #mnwx #wiwx #kare11 #kare11 weather

March ended up above average for the Twin Cities, but much closer to the norm compared to Feb. The first half of the month was well above average before a stretch below normal. The bulk of our moisture came in our late March snow storm. #mnwx #kare11 #kare11 weather

What a wacky winter it has been

Another round of snow is set for Tuesday morning. Rain will be turning over to snow from west to east. There could be some icy conditions for the morning commute, especially on those secondary and residential roads. Drive with caution. #mnwx #wiwx #kare11 #kare11 weather

Hang on tight! Gusty northwest winds will make Tuesday feel quite cold. There will be blowing snow to deal with during the morning hours too. #mnwx #wiwx #kare11 #kare11 weather

Snow has been piling up in the @KARE11 Backyard all afternoon. Snow continues overnight before rain moves in Monday morning. Check in with the #KARE11 Sunrise team starting at 4:30 am for your weather & traffic reports. Drive safe everyone. #mnwx #wiwx

Heavier band of snow moving north thru southern MN this evening. Expect snowfall to intensify giving a better chance to stick to the roads. Conditions likely worsen through the overnight. Rain moves in during the AM commute helping to clear snow & slush. #mnwx #wiwx #kare11

Nearly the entire region is under a Winter Storm Warning for Sun & Mon for heavy snow & strong winds. Southern MN, the Twin Cities & western WI will see snow turn to rain affecting roads & snow totals. I'll time the storm out on @KARE11 at 10pm. #mnwx #wiwx #kare11 #kare11 weather

There is greater confidence (brighter color) of heavy snow in west-central and southwest MN. The Twin Cities has a chance of 6' of snow by late Sunday, but the timing of the transition to rain on Monday significantly impacts the final snow totals in the Metro area. #mnwx #kare11

A quick look at the weekend in the Twin Cities. Cold & quiet for Saturday followed by heavy snow& windy for Sunday afternoon and evening. You'll want to take care of those errands on Saturday and avoid the roads on Sunday. #mnwx #wiwx #kare11 #kare11 weather

#Snow is finally coming down around the Twin Cities metro area. Snow accumulation is expected to intensify between 9pm and 11pm; the greatest accumulation will happen late tonight into the overnight hours. #mnwx #wiwx #kare11 #kare11 weather
