Weekend rain chances
Our next low-pressure system has already caused disruptions in the Rockies, bringing over 2 feet of snow to the mountain ranges.
Our environment remains warm enough for an all-rain event, with rainfall totals expected to be minimal, ranging from a tenth to a quarter of an inch.
The system approaches southern Minnesota early Saturday morning, and will be exiting the Upper Midwest by noon on Sunday.
On Saturday, temperatures will range from the upper 40s to lower 50s, with mostly cloudy skies and sporadic rain showers.
