It was a nice start
to November, with several days of above-normal temperatures. Snow arrived on
the 10th, with 3.4 inches at MSP airport and much higher amounts over central Minnesota. Snowcover and a cold upper air flow pattern have
combined to give us several days of frigid temperatures. Since November 10th, our temps
have been more typical of January than November.
Any hope for a nice
rebound in temps? Not anytime soon. Chilly temperatures persist through the 5
day forecast, which takes us to November 19th. Looking further ahead, the 6-10 day temperature
outlook (Nov 20-24) from the Climate Prediction Center of the National Weather Service shows
a tendency for below normal temperatures over Minnesota and Wisconsin:
In case you’re
wondering, our average high in the Twin Cities drops from 41 degrees on November
15th to 33 degrees on November 30th.
