The weekend is shaping up to be a warm one for many parts of the state. Friday will bring mild temperatures, especially in the southern regions and the Twin Cities area. Residents can expect daytime highs reaching the upper 40s, with a chance of touching the 50s as Saturday arrives.

In northern Minnesota, mornings will stay cool and misty because of the lingering snow. The snowpack is slowly melting, so fog will be common early on Friday.

By Saturday, the southwestern part of the state may see temperatures climb toward 60 degrees. A change in wind direction—from southwest to north—could bring a few clouds or fog over the metro area early Sunday, slightly dropping the heat.

Looking ahead to next week, a mix of rain and sun is possible on Wednesday. Temperatures are likely to fall back into the 30s by Thursday, marking a cooler period after this brief heat wave.
