Minnesota Weather: Some Snow In Forecast For Twin Cities
You won't have to get the shovels out, but the weather is going to stay cold for the next week in Minnesota.
TWIN CITIES, MN — Minnesotans may wake up on Mother's Day to see a dusting of snow outside. Early Sunday morning will feature chances for snow before the day's rain.
The rest of the week will remain quite cold for May, with several nights reaching near-freezing temperatures.
There's a chance that the Twin Cities could see some measurable snow after midnight Saturday night, which would place it on Mother's Day. Since 1908 the only Mother's Day with measurable snowfall in the Twin Cities was in 1946 with 0.2". #mnwx
