Sprinklers needed this week
Mother Nature has been doing a fantastic job all summer providing us with timely showers. Above normal temperatures and little to no precipitation in the forecast means that we will need to water our landscape and vegetation. The month of September averages about 3 inches of rainfall. To date we have clocked a whopping 0.01 inches of rain for Minneapolis-St. Paul.
Our 6-10 day and 8-14 day temperature outlook continues to show an above average trend.
Enjoy a long stretch of sunshine and 80s!
