CEDAR RAPIDS, Iowa — A Sudden Stratospheric Warming Event has officially occurred high above the North Pole, and it could set the stage for a major pattern change across the Midwest. The event has disrupted the polar vortex, which often opens the door for Arctic air to spill south into the Lower 48. Forecasters say the change could last from Thanksgiving week through at least the first half of December. Repeated Arctic blasts and elevated winter storm chances are expected across a wide part of the region.
Minneapolis, St. Paul, Duluth and Rochester could face rain, snow or ice if colder air arrives.
Minneapolis faces freezing nights in the low 20s before temperatures rebound into the mid-50s next week.
MINNEAPOLIS — Snow chances are rising across the Upper Midwest and Northern Plains. They could start as early as the coming weekend and continue through the end of November. A brief warm-up early next week will come before a strong cold front around November 20 brings colder air into the region. Multiple rounds of winter weather are possible heading into Thanksgiving week.
Behind Wednesday's weak front, northerly flow has ushered in much cooler, seasonable air to the Twin Cities on Thursday.
Cold air is filtering in across Minnesota, and it's going to stick around for a few days.
