MN weather: Hot holiday weekend
The Fourth of July holiday weekend will be hot, with temperatures reaching the high 80s on Saturday and into the 90s on Sunday. The weekend should stay dry, but storms are possible for July 4.
MINNEAPOLIS (FOX 9) - Temperatures in the 90s are in the forecast for the July 4 holiday weekend.
A cold front has led to lower humidity on Friday, with a high of 89 degrees. Saturday — the first day of July — will feature lower humidity, sunshine and a toasty high of 90 degrees in the Twin Cities. Sunday is looking hot, with sunshine and a high of 92 degrees.
Monday will be more humid, with a high of 95 degrees.
For the Fourth of July, a high of 91 degrees is in the forecast. An isolated rumble is possible.
Cabin country weekend forecast
Much better air quality for northern Minnesota and northern Wisconsin as we head through the long holiday weekend.
Temperatures will also be on the rise as the 80s return on Saturday and are likely to peak Monday in most areas, with low 90s possible for some. All this before the chance for storms returns Monday night and Tuesday, which will cool temperatures slightly by the Fourth.
Sunshine will prevail for the most part with some clouds arriving when the storm opportunities return. While it will certainly be quite warm (a little above average), the dew points, or the level of moisture in the atmosphere, will be fairly low for Saturday and Sunday but are likely to start creeping back into the humid and very humid category by Tuesday.
