A cool start to the week will be followed by a warming trend with high temperatures in Duluth climbing into the middle 50s to around 60 away from Lake Superior from midweek through next weekend but temperatures will be cooler near Lake Superior due to an easterly wind which will develop again after Monday.
Note: Normal highs from May 2nd through May 11th range from 57 to 61 degrees, with normal lows ranging from 36 to 40 degrees.
The last time Duluth had a high temperature of at least 60 degrees was on November 6th. I do think will get our first 60 degree high of the year sometime between May 7th-10th.
A strong area of low pressure continues to slowly lift east-northeast across upper Michigan while slowly pulling away from the Northland late today.
