forecast

There is some good news, though.

Even though I'm noticing these bugs on my house, it is nothing like the swarms that were out last year.

We might still be in the last week of summer (even though it's mid-September already) but the National Weather Service just released their updated long-range winter outlook for Minnesota.

The National Weather Service has issued a worrisome forecast for areas of southeastern Minnesota, northeastern Iowa and southwestern Wisconsin that have been socked recently by torrential rains and damaging flooding.

Remember when we had that amazing, warm, November?   Well, it looks like we're paying for it with a terrible December and January.  This week looks pretty wretched, starting with Monday and Tuesday.

The streak is over.  Rochester’s streak of below normal temperatures that began on January 4th will end today. And a new streak will begin as several days of above average temperatures are in the forecast.

Rochester experienced its coldest weather in almost a year Tuesday morning.

It appears Minnesota and other areas of the country are about to come out of the deep freeze.

A blizzard warning issued earlier for areas just to the west of Rochester has now been expanded into southeastern Minnesota.
