May 2026 finished exactly 1.0F above the long term average in Minneapolis. 2.24” of precipitation which is -1.67” below average. There was a late freeze on May 6th.
The somewhat surprising 0.37” we received yesterday couldn’t have been timed better.
Hot Memorial Day in Minneapolis under the influence of the ridge, 86 with the dew point creeping into the low 60s. Point had a forecast high of 88 so I’ll take the W.
Heat cranks up today. Probably will run my A/C for the first time this year in the next week or so. Hoping to score a thundershower for some of that precipitation stuff we always seem in need of.
