MN weather: Cold temperatures coming up

Hey everyone and happy Wednesday. It's meteorologist Erica Marazic with the latest check of your forecast. It was a warm day yesterday and then today temperatures were cooler and it's going to get even more cooler with this north wind moving in for the rest of the work week. So highs were in the 60s but then today in the 50s then it's looking like they'll be in the 30s and the 40s for Thursday and Friday. It was dry though, some clouds to start today, but now just some passing clouds and no rain, no snow. However, towards the east, there are a couple areas with some light flakes in Wisconsin and in Michigan with that moisture moving off of Lake Superior. But that's going to stay in that area. I expect pretty much dry conditions here in Minnesota tonight into tomorrow. Today it was about 56 for your high temperature. 44 is your typical high and that's basically where you were at for your low today at 43 to start. Usually it's 30 and then temperatures will be getting lower than that for your highs and your lows for later this week. Across the state though, highs are mostly 50s and 40s. Still in 30s though for international falls throughout the afternoon. And now a lot more 30s popping up on the map here at 8 p.m. Temperatures 30s from Grand Marais all the way through St. Cloud, even Hutchinson, and down towards Marshall temperatures in those 30s. Currently still 41 in the Twin Cities. It's going to be about freezing in the Twin Cities metro tonight and chillier outside of the metro. Your north wind is still blowing right now. It's going to stay from the north throughout your Thursday and throughout your Friday. So that's going to... Bring in that chilly air from Canada where temperatures are going to be below average and this will be some of the coolest air we've, well it will be the coolest air we've seen for the season so far. And the last time we had temperatures this chilly was in April. Just a quick trip in the freezer, though. Temperatures will increase into the weekend. There's going to be highs that return to the 40s, and then I do have the 50s at the end of the seven-day forecast. And then although it's cool and very chilly, at least it's going to be sunny and bright. There'll be plenty of sunshine, very few clouds throughout the forecast. Overnight tonight... Freezing for the low temperature in the Twin Cities, you do want the extra layer on for the end of the week and the thicker jacket with these temperatures that are below average. So it does feel finally like November again with the temperatures reaching about 39 for the afternoon tomorrow and then 31 for the evening. Then it gets very chilly for your Thursday night and a Friday morning. That's when you might have a low in the 20s. Then the afternoon high picks up to about 40 degrees on Friday, mostly sunny skies, so it looks nice, but it feels cool. And then temperatures go right back down to the 20s again for Friday night into Saturday, and then Saturday night into Sunday. But those high temperatures, they're going to increase into the weekend, so we start a warming trend. Highs get back eventually to above average, and then even to those low 50s. So we'll be getting more mild in a couple of weeks. A couple of days after a cool one to end this week. So y'all have a great rest of your evening.
