Return of sunshine and 70-degree temperatures

After a cool, wet, and stormy week across much of the state, this week is fairing much better.  We’ll see the return of sunshine as high pressure settles into the area for much of the week.  With the sun, we’ll see a good chance of reaching 70-degrees on both Tuesday and Thursday.  Finally a chance to get back outside!  Some frost may be possible in the outlying suburbs of the Twin Cities metro into Western Wisconsin Monday morning, so it may be a good idea to cover up and delicate plants as a precaution.

The next chance of rain moves into the area Thursday night as a low pressure system approaches from the southwest.  Precipitation amounts appear to be light, however this rain could linger into the weekend.  Any outdoor plans my need a “Plan B” at this point.  The graphic below is valid at 7 PM Thursday.

Today through Wednesday will be very nice.  Get out and enjoy!
