Weather Summary for NE Minnesota and NW Wisconsin
Valid for February 2-6, 2014
Generally quiet weather conditions will continue in the Northland with more cold temperatures, although we will get a brief break from the cold on Monday as high temperatures get into the teens to the low 20s.
Subzero Overnight lows continue Tonight and will range from the single digits below to around 20 below. Lows Monday Night will range from around 10 below to 10 above. Lows Tuesday Night and Wednesday Night will be in the single digits, teens, and 20s below.
Note: About the only real weather concern around our area through Thursday will be the potential for hazardous wind chill values at times and this may result in the issuance of wind chill advisories across parts of the Northland.
I don’t see any minor snow events and certainly no major snow events around here through the next 7 days or so.
