Showers & Storms the Night Before Memorial Day
SATURDAY NIGHT: After seeing rain over the past few days, we got a break from the rain this Saturday afternoon, with partly to mostly sunny skies and highs in the 50s in the north and mid-60s in the south. Overnight, skies will be partly to mostly clear, with only a slight chance of showers in the southeasternmost parts of Lakes Country (due to a line of moisture streaming from a low-pressure system in the Great Plains), although little rain is expected in those areas. By Sunday morning, skies will be partly sunny, with morning lows in the 40s to low-50s, so expect a mild, uneventful morning. The only issue for tonight, besides flood watches and warnings on the Red River, will be that frost is possible in the northernmost counties, which could damage any sensitive plants, so a Frost Advisory will be in effect overnight until 8 AM Sunday.
