Summerlike Weather Returns After An Unseasonably Cold Labor Day Week

Minnesota got an early taste of fall last week as unseasonably cold weather brought frost to parts of the state. Climatologist Kenny Blumenfeld says some of the temperatures broke records. “The Twin Cities area had two back-to-back record low maximum temperatures; basically, the high temperature of the day was as low as it had ever been on record two days in a row.” Blumenfeld says the week ahead looks glorious with “a good, strong return to warm, almost hot conditions” especially on Tuesday. Also, a look at the unprecedented wildfires in California, Washington state and Oregon and a record number of simultaneous tropical storms.
