Snow

The 10-day forecast is out and in it for Minneapolis, Duluth, and Rochester is the "s" word. Yes, snow is on the way.

This month is usually the grayest in Minnesota, with lots of cloudy days. Temperatures also drop quickly; for example, in Minneapolis, the average high is 50°F at the start of the month but falls to 35°F by the end, will that pattern continue this year?

Our temperatures have been unseasonably warm so we haven't had to deal with it yet, but when is the earliest we've seen snowfall here in the Bold North?

Major red flags have been thrown for one specific week this winter.

Well, we knew it would happen eventually but a massive snowstorm this is not.

Low temperatures are expected to drop below freezing for most of Minnesota for the first time on Monday night.

In an online announcement, the Minnesota brothers cite financial needs as the driving force behind not having a sculpture this year.

Octobers in Minnesota are known for crisp air and bright foliage turning the landscape into shades of red, orange, and yellow. Days get shorter, and nights become cooler, with temperatures usually in the 60s during the day and dropping into the 40s at night. It’s often an ideal month for outdoor activities like backyard fires, hiking, and apple picking while the colorful leaves are at their best.

Ope.

Winter might not be too far off.
