A frontal boundary will stay nearly stationary this weekend, extending from the Dakotas to southern Minnesota, well south of the Northland. South of this front, conditions will become increasingly muggy, with dew points reaching the 70s, while north of the boundary, dew points are expected to remain in the 50s and 60s. The highest humidity will persist south of the Northland throughout the weekend.
Expect highs in the 70s around most of the Northland this weekend, but it’ll be cooler—around the 60s—closer to Lake Superior thanks to those east winds. You might also see some low clouds or fog rolling in at times.
Expect occasional showers and thunderstorms this weekend along the southern boundary, with scattered rain likely farther north across northeast Minnesota and northwest Wisconsin.
