  1. Minneapolis needs 9” to break the record and 5.3” for second place. Duluth needs 3.8” to break the record and 0.1” for second place.
  2. It is the NAM so take it with a grain of salt….but 4-6” of snow after multiple 80 degree days would be something. It’s definitely going to snow Sunday, the question is how much.
  3. Bingo, we are taking soil samples for a proposed residential development.
  4. My farmers tan is almost in midsummer form after a few days working in this heat. This photo was taken today in a soon to be suburbanized part of Rosemount MN when it was 82 outside. Still some pockets of deeper snow in spots. Bonus points to anyone who knows what kind of drill rig that is in the background.
  5. Minneapolis got up to 88 again this afternoon, breaking the record high of 85. The last remaining ice on Lake Nokomis a few blocks from my house melted out today. 9 days later then the long term average.
  6. One more day of record heat and then models are trying to give us either a cold rain or accumulating snow Sunday. Turned on the AC this morning, trying to get ahead of the heat. Our house got up to 82 with windows open yesterday and only cooled off to 74 overnight.
  7. It’s 88 degrees in Minneapolis right now. Previous record was 83. first tick of the season on my leg today.
  8. It’s ridiculous outside this morning, still 64 at 6am. I’m going to have to turn my AC on today. Todays record high is toast.
  9. Minneapolis Spring 2023 First 50: April 2nd First 60: April 9th First 70: April 10th First 80: April 11th
  10. 81 degrees in Minneapolis. Heat Island flexing its muscles. I can see thermals (or the cold equivalent) rising off the still frozen lake.
  11. Grass is starting to green up in areas that had 4+ months of snowcover just days ago. Already 75 here, 80 is within reach.
  12. Yes please. We are so close to the all time record. Might as well break it and the century mark.
  13. First 70 of the year in Minneapolis with a high of 72. Looks like we’ll tag 80 by Wednesday with record highs possible. What a turnaround!
  14. Overachieving here too. We are up to 66 after a forecast high of 61. First temperature above 60 in Minneapolis since November 10 It felt really good to shovel all the remaining snow off the deck.
  15. One last chilly morning in the low 20s. Warmup starts in earnest today. Kinda looking forward to it tbh.
  16. I think my yards snowpack will be gone after this weekend.
  17. I found some areas were still knee deep. I was impressed to say the least.
  18. 28 and snow squalling. We’d have a solid dusting of new snow but the wind is whipping it around.
  19. I’ve done enough psychedelic drugs in my day to kill a horse but I’m pretty sure I’m not hallucinating and the calendar says April.
  20. To each their own. I love it. Long live king winter. 90 degrees with a dew point of 65 is utterly disgusting to me.
  21. 30 and spitting flurries. Winter is hanging on strong this year. I’m on a job site in the woods in Lakeville MN (southern suburb) and there’s still easily 12-20” of snow here.
  22. We’re gonna go from the first 50 of the year to the first 70 of the year in a 10 day span.
  23. Flipped to hail then rain here. Precip will be winding down shortly, we stayed frozen longer then anticipated. Northern suburbs might stay almost totally frozen. Didn’t even get a rumble of thunder….
  24. Probably will be too far north for severe and too far south for snow.
