Minnesota weather and drought outlook

Overview

Minnesota is facing a period of dry conditions and variable weather patterns. The Climate Prediction Center has issued a fall outlook forecasting a warmer-than-normal autumn for the state, with precipitation levels expected to remain near average. Despite these precipitation projections, drought concerns persist, as the U.S. Drought Monitor indicates that 88 percent of Minnesota is abnormally dry, including segments classified as moderate, severe, and extreme drought.

Short-term forecasts indicate a period of pleasant, dry weather through the upcoming weekend, following potential isolated showers and thunderstorms. High temperatures are expected to reach the low 70s to low 80s with lower humidity. This sunny trend is projected to continue into the following week, providing breezy conditions with highs in the 70s and 80s for the start of the Minnesota State Fair.
