As has been the theme this season, warmer trends and less-than-average precipitation have taken hold, meaning Minnesota's warmest December in state history is likely on the horizon.
According to retired meteorologist and climatologist Mark Seeley, many climate stations across the state are already recording record-high temperatures, including St. Cloud and International Falls. If warm trends continue over the next weeks, Minneapolis, St. Paul and Duluth could see their warmest December since 1877.
MPR News host Cathy Wurzer spoke with Seeley about the record-breaking warmth in their weekly weather chat.
