Happy first day of meteorological fall!
What a difference between Saturday’s highs in the mid-80s and Sunday’s highs in the lower 70s. It’s almost as if a switch was flipped to change the seasons.

Labor Day forecast
High pressure from Canada will settle over the Twin Cities Sunday into Labor Day. Look for sunshine, light winds, and cool nights.
