Already -17 at MSP. That was the forecast low tonight. Let’s make a run for -20!

It looks like the official high in Minneapolis will be -6F today. That makes today the coldest high temperature since the -13F on 1/30/2019. That day featured a low of -28F which is the coldest it’s gotten here since I moved to Minneapolis in 2016.

Temps stuck at -8 all day. We’ve had ice crystal squalls move through and deposit dustings at time. Haven’t experienced something quite like this before at these temperatures. There might have been a 5min obs of -6 but we’ll see what the official high is at 6pm.

-13 presently in Minneapolis. The high temperature reached -1 yesterday here.

My main takeaway from this whole conversation is wondering what tier of airline status you must have acquired.

The NFC north choked hard in the playoffs this year.

Sitting at -13F this morning in Minneapolis. Our coldest low of the season. These aren’t final numbers but from what I can find currently -20F Duluth, -22F Bemidji, -24F International Falls, -26F Ely

At least you can’t blame warm temps for the bare ground this year. It’s been plenty cold just bone dry northwest of the lakes.

Midnight high of 16 at MSP. Down to 7 at 6am. I’m surprised but the airport was able to hang onto our 1” snow depth through the 1 day warm up.

I’ll take an April 2018 redux.

Front has moved through. Down to 28 and falling fast after our high of 38 today. Backyard remains snow covered.

5.5” from a juiced Clipper on December 19th. Pennies outside of that. Can’t get a system to come our way this winter. Only have to go to hour 330 on the GFS for substantial precipitation in my region.

Temps overachieving here. Already up to 34F. The first above freezing temperature of 2025 in Minneapolis.

All of us here know it’s coming too. Although snowfall has been paltry this winter locally there has been plenty of seasonable cold. The twin cities have held a 1-2” snow depth since last Thursday.

0.1” a true dusting this evening.
