Dews have mercifully dropped to the 58-60 range, after hanging around 70-72 the past two days.

Steamy Independence Day in the Twin Cities. 88/70 at 11am. Water activities abound.

90 yesterday, 90 again today so far. Kids love the heat.

June ended up 0.5F above average in Minneapolis. Pretty up and down month. 3 days above 90 with a monthly high of 96, but what stands out to me is the high of 57 on the 13th.

High of 85 today. Fell well short of the forecasted 90.

High of 66 yesterday with 0.76” of rain. Warming trend begins today.

We’ve been stuck at 63 all day here. Glad to be north of the front. Two days in the 90s was enough for me. Our two day rain total will probably be somewhere around 3” once all is said and done in Minneapolis.

Monsoonal rain for the past hour+ here.

High of 72 with 1.68” of rainfall. Not a single rumble of thunder up here, much different atmosphere in southern Minnesota today.

Over an inch of rain today so far. Eating away at our year to date deficit

Didn’t look very hard, best I could find was Great Falls Montana with a daily departure of -19F on the 22nd.

Ready to get soaked at work. Geotechnical report on the Eagan high school athletic fields due Friday and I’ve got soil to look at. Bring on the rain.

Dew point has fallen to the upper 40s here. Oh what a feeling

79/66 currently with summertime cumulus. Big difference from this time yesterday when we were 91/74.

It’s a kiddie pool and splash pad kind of day. These are the good old days.

When we were still at 90 at midnight I thought there was a chance of breaking some records. Madison Minnesota is usually the warmest city in the Twin Cities WFO. Low of 86 there.

96 today. Forecast was 98 so I guess a bust low. Still 91 at 9:30pm Both MSP and STC hit record high temperatures on Saturday, June 21, breaking the previous records of 95 set in 1910. The exact values for each are still being verified, but they reached at least 96. Record high temperatures are possible again on Sunday with hot/humid air in place and the warm front remaining to the north of our coverage area. *** Record Highs Sun June 22 *** Location | Forecast | Record ------------------------------ MSP | 97 | 98 (1911) STC | 95 | 98 (1911) EAU | 95 | 99 (1995)

From the NWS The forecast low of 83 at MSP would be the second warmest low on record, and 3 degrees short of the all-time record of 86 from the Dust Bowl era.

Bemidji Minnesota gusted to 106mph last night. Have to imagine there is extensive tree damage up there.

Thunderstorms stayed south of the airport. I don’t think we dropped below 81. Feels like New Orleans out here.

Dew points have been steadily rising all day. We are now up to 73. Tropical out there.

Ready to roast.

Funny you mention it, I was looking at bringing the family up to Duluth this weekend to escape the heat but it’s Grandma’s Marathon weekend so your assertion that half the state will be up there is probably accurate. Point forecast bumped up to 98 at MSP. Outside chance we break triple digits. The splash pad will be out in our yard this weekend and I’ll be trying to convince the kids to play in the basement.

Topped out at 88 today. 3 days of muggy 90s ahead of us and then hopefully a ring of fire. Sure seems like a lot of areas in this sub have seen more precipitation the past week then Minneapolis has seen for all of 2025. MSP is sitting at 11.03” of precipitation since January 1st.
