There are lingering clouds in northeastern Minnesota Friday morning that should clear out by midday, but the rest of the state is already starting out with sunshine.  Mostly sunny skies will prevail through the day, and winds will stay relatively light. Overall, it will be a pleasant day! 

More clouds start to move in overnight ahead of widespread rain for Saturday.  That extended forecast will be updated around 9 a.m.
