Cool Friday and Saturday; a few showers late Saturday
Low clouds will hang around much of Friday and even most of Saturday, so don’t look for a lot of movement on temperatures Friday. Highs will be just around 40 south to freezing north.
Friday night will be a bit colder with some breaks in the clouds and lighter winds. Lows will fall into the 20s statewide. A few teens are possible in northeastern Minnesota’s typical cold spots.
Saturday will be a bit warmer but overall right near normal with mid-40s south to mid-30s north.
