The workweek starts on a cooler note with below-average temperatures in the 50s. The day will be far less windy than the weekend, with winds expected at 10-15 mph from the northwest. FOX 9 meteorologist Cody Matz has your forecast.

The Brief

    • It's a chillier start to the day on Monday with temperatures in the 30s. Temperatures will only heat up into the upper 40s and lower 50s across Minnesota.
    • Warmer temperatures in the 60s and 70s are expected later this week.
    • Overnight temperatures will flirt with freezing, but given the cloud coverage and winds, the first freeze in the metro may not happen for another week.
