It is going to be a very nice weekend across the region as we get ready to end September. Get the details in this morning's video forecast.

09/25/2025

We have a cool start to the morning across Southern Minnesota with temperatures sitting in the lower to middle 50s, but we are not going to stay there long as we see some warmer air moving in for this afternoon leading to daytime highs climbing into the upper 70s in Southeast Minnesota and more like the lower to middle 80s elsewhere. Sunshine will also prevail for our Thursday before giving way to mostly clear skies tonight and lows once again in the 50s.

Friday is going to be a lot of the same with some chances for patchy fog early on, then sunshine with everyone in the southern portion of the state expected to climb into the 80s for highs with overnight lows also staying lower in the upper 50s and maybe some lower 60s. Saturday cools down a bit with highs largely in the middle and upper 70s but we will warm back up for Sunday and into early next week with highs back in the 80s as we near the end of September.

We have some areas of fog once again to start our Wednesday morning, but it does not appear to be as widespread as it was yesterday. None the less, we do have Dense Fog Advisories in place until later this morning for most of Southeast, Central and Northern Minnesota with visibilities as low a quarter mile once again.

Just like yesterday, once any fog burns off later this morning, we are going to work toward sunshine with highs in the lower 70s for one more day before we then begin a bit of a warm up for the second half of the week that will see many jumping into the upper 70s and lower 80s through Friday before we drop just a bit going into the weekend with daytime highs in the middle 70s for Saturday. Overnight lows through this entire time period will stay in the 50s in South Central and Southeast Minnesota, while southwestern locations may be a bit warmer with lows closer to 60.

The quiet conditions look to hang around into next week with no additional moisture in the forecast at this point through at least Tuesday.

09/23/2025

We have some areas of very dense fog to start our Tuesday morning with South Central and Southeast Minnesota all sitting in a Dense Fog Advisory until late this morning. Visibility is as low as a quarter of a mile in some places so keep that in mind as you get ready to step out the door and perhaps even allow some extra time if you will be headed out before sunrise.

Once the fog dissipates, we are looking at a decent day across Southern Minnesota with at least mostly sunny skies across the board and highs in the middle 70s, similar to yesterday in most areas. Clouds will begin to increase from the west tonight as more fog looks to settle in going into the middle of the week.

Wednesday will be similar to today with mostly sunny skies and highs in the lower to middle 70s before we start to warm up a bit on Thursday with highs nearing 80 for many of us which will then carry into Friday with more sunshine.

An early look at the weekend has sunshine and dry conditions hanging around with highs in the upper 70s and low 80s.

There is a chance of isolated showers and thunderstorms that could once again pack some large hail and potentially a tornado or two as the evening goes on most likely within the area circled in blue. The radar image below is from 3:50 this afternoon and shows the development that has already gotten started with the white hashed lines showing the current direction of travel.

Good morning and welcome to the official start of Fall!!

We still have some showers and thunderstorms hanging around parts of Southern Minnesota on this Monday morning with most of the activity now east of Interstate 35. While none of these have been severe, a couple of them could be on the stronger side with some gusty winds and brief heavy rainfall along with plenty of lightning. The good news is these storms will continue to push off to the east and southeast which will help us get to quiet and dry conditions as we move into the afternoon. A few more showers and thunderstorms will possible this evening in South Central and Southeast Minnesota, but then we will be on the quiet side for the remainder of the week.

Temperatures are also going to hang out right or even just below normal with highs in the lower to middle 70s with mostly sunny skies until we start to warm up just a bit by Friday with highs in the upper 70s and lower 80s. Overnight lows through most of the week are also expected to start dropping back into the 50s.

09/21/2025

A SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WARNING is in effect until 7 p.m. for Waseca County

Hazard: Two inch hail (updated 6:18 p.m.)

The strongest portion of the storm, as of 6:15 p.m. is just near Otisco moving east at 15 mph.

09/21/2025

There have reports of hail up to two inches in diameter with the storm in Southeastern Waseca County, but it looks as though there is some melting taking place above the surface meaning a lot of the potential hail would likely be smaller than originally indicated. We are also seeing some merging of what were originally individual cells that should start to compete for instability which I think will lead to some weaking as these storms continue to push east.

09/19/2025

We have some scattered showers and a couple of embedded thunderstorms over parts of South Central and Central Minnesota this Midday which will likely lead to some brief downpours and potentially some gusty winds, but nothing is expected to be overly strong as the day goes on, but you may want to have that umbrella as we go into the afternoon and toward tonight if you have outdoor plans.

Overall, rainfall amounts are expected to be the highest over Central Minnesota over the next 36 to 48 hours with up to an inch possible while lesser totals of a half inch or less are more likely further south, however locally heavy downpours could also lead to some higher totals all depending on where they end up tracking.

This rain producing system that has been very slowly moving across the Midwest for the last several days will finally begin to exit the area as we go into the second half of Saturday and while a couple of showers and thunderstorms are still going to be possible on Sunday, the overall amounts are going to be much lower with the actual showers being even more scattered.

Temperatures are also going to be changing as we work on climbing into the upper 70s by the end of the weekend and early next week, but another cold front will move in during the day on Tuesday which will get us back around normal for mid to late September with highs in the lower 70s.

For the rest of today, we are going to look for an increase in shower coverage, especially by late afternoon and into the evening. Highs will top out in the lower 70s across much of Southern Minnesota with upper 60s more probable in Western locations.
Showers will diminish in Western Minnesota tonight with lows in the upper 50s across the entire area before everyone looks to climb back into the lower to middle 70s on Saturday ahead of some warmer air for Sunday into Monday.

09/19/2025

We have some areas of showers and perhaps an isolated thunderstorm mostly over West Central and Southeast Minnesota that are moving their way north along a frontal system that will continue to move its way out of the area as we get into tonight.

Showers are going to be possible as we go into the afternoon across the region, but it looks like the best chance of seeing some measurable rain would likely come late this afternoon and into the evening with forecast models thinking we could see between and third and half of an inch of rainfall across South Central and Southeast Minnesota by early tomorrow morning along with slightly higher amounts in southwestern areas.

Showers are looking to hang around into Saturday, but overall it looks like rain totals will be less as we get back into more of a scattered pattern. By the time we get into Sunday morning, we could be looking at another one to two tenths of an inch on top of totals from today and tonight.

On the temperature side, we are cooling things down some more for today as many of us look for highs in the lower 70s expect for Southwest Minnesota which is showing indications at 70 degrees may be a bit of a stretch. Everyone will be back into the 70s on Saturday with widespread shower chances beginning to move out before we then start to warm back up with highs for Sunday and into early next week topping out in the upper 70s. We are not going to stay their long though as another cold front looks to move through on Tuesday brining another chance of showers along with temperatures falling back into the lower 70s.
