Overview
- The Twin Cities officially recorded a first fall freeze Friday when temperatures at Minneapolis–St. Paul International Airport fell to about 31°F.
- Friday will be sunny and seasonably cool with widespread highs in the 40s and light winds across much of Minnesota.
- Many areas will see near‑ or below‑freezing overnight lows Friday night, with some suburbs dipping into the 20s.
- A gradual warmup is expected: lows into the low 50s on Saturday and highs climbing into the mid to upper 50s, with a brief shot near 60°F possible on Monday.
- This year’s first freeze ties the Nov. 6, 1958 date for the third‑latest first freeze on record and comes nearly a month later than the local average first freeze in early October.
