Current Conditions/Today:

Low pressure is moving across northern Ontario this morning with a cold front trailing into northern MN. Radar returns show some weak echoes across northern MN but with the dry air in the low levels we don't anticipate any of this activity to make it to the surface. The frontal boundary will march slowly across the Northland today with winds turning from southerly to northerly with its passage. High pressure will build in behind the boundary with cloud cover largely clearing out by mid day. This will allow ample time for temperatures to recover with another warm day expected as afternoon high temperatures climb into the 60s and low 70s. Overnight, radiational cooling paired with lightly mixed winds and low level moisture could lead to areas of fog developing (30-50% chance).

Tomorrow:

Transient surface high pressure will drift eastward across the region Thursday as an upper-level ridge builds over the northern Plains and Canadian Prairies. Temperatures will remain well above normal as winds turn southerly. Lows Thursday morning will range from the low 30s to around 40 degrees. Look for highs in the low 60s to low 70s, about 10-20 degrees above normal. Temps will be cooler for portions of the North Shore and Arrowhead due to on-shore flow. Those readings will be 5-10 degrees above normal with highs in the middle 50s to low 60s.

Friday through Sunday Night:

Aviation

Issued at 1230 AM CDT Wed Oct 21 2026

A weak cold front is advancing in from the northwest this morning. Radar is showing some weak echoes associated with this boundary but not expecting any precipitation at the surface. Mid and upper level clouds will clear out through the morning hours as high pressure builds in behind the boundary. Expect winds to be light and out of the north as the behind the front. Additionally, northern MN still has a few more hours under the influence of a low level wind shear at the start of the TAF period.

Marine

Issued at 210 AM CDT Wed Oct 21 2026

Southwest winds through the day around 5 to 10 knots. A front will pass over the Lake switching winds to out of the northeast tonight. Winds will continue to be on the light side until late Friday when southerly winds ramp up and could lead to hazardous boating conditions for small vessels.
