Forecast high temperatures Friday

We’re heading into the Christmas week holiday travel season.
Overall travel weather looks pretty good across Minnesota and the Upper Midwest through Christmas Day. In fact, a Christmas Eve warm front will make it feel more like Thanksgiving weekend in central and southern Minnesota.
Let’s highlight some temperatures and potential snow times through this weekend.
Light snow up north Thursday
A minor clipper will bring some light snow to northern Minnesota late Wednesday and Thursday. This system looks to target far northern Minnesota with light snow. Some areas will pick up an inch or two from Hallock in the northwest corner of Minnesota, through Roseau, International Falls, the Iron Range and the North Shore.

Christmas Eve warm front
Yet another push of unseasonably mild air rides north on Christmas Eve. North of the warm front, there will be a few rain and snow showers across northern Minnesota. South of the front, temperatures will push into the 40s once again across southern Minnesota. I won’t be shocked if some towns hit 50 degrees along the Interstate 90 corridor Friday afternoon.

Light snow chance Christmas Day
The Christmas Day snow chance that popped up on the forecast models Tuesday looks weaker today. A chance of light snow appears likely for much of central and southern Minnesota Saturday.

Right now Sunday travel weather looks drama-free.
