WEATHER SUMMARY FOR MINNESOTA
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TWIN CITIES/CHANHASSEN MN
640 AM CDT SAT MAY 11 2013

...A WINDY FISHING OPENER...

NORTHWEST WINDS GUSTED OVER 30 MPH AT TIMES DURING THE LATE NIGHT
HOURS...AS A STRONG COLD FRONT SWEPT ACROSS THE STATE.  THE FRONT
BROUGHT SOME CLOUDS AND A FEW SHOWERS...BUT THE MAIN STORY WAS THE
WIND AND COOL TEMPERATURES.  EXPECT WINDS TO CONTINUE TO GUST OVER
30 MPH MUCH OF THE DAY. FOR THOSE LAKES STILL COVERED WITH ICE...
THE STRONG WINDS WILL BLOW ICE AROUND AND COULD CAUSE SOME
DIFFICULTIES ON SOUTHEAST SHORES IF THE ICE PILES UP.

ONCE THE COLD FRONT MOVES AWAY...THE WINDS SHOULD TAPER OFF AND HIGH
PRESSURE...WITH COOLER TEMPERATURES...WILL SETTLE IN FOR THE NIGHT.
LOWS SHOULD BE IN THE 20S AND LOWER 30S...WITH PLENTY OF FROST.
NOT THE BEST OF FISHING OPENERS.

AS THE HIGH DRIFTS EAST TOMORROW...WINDS WILL BE QUIETER TOMORROW...
THOUGH STILL NOTICEABLE...ESPECIALLY IN PARTS OF THE NORTHEAST.
MOSTLY SUNNY SKIES WILL PREVAIL...ALONG WITH TEMPERATURES VARYING
FROM 45 TO 60 DEGREES.

AFTER THE HIGH PRESSURE SYSTEM MOVES AWAY...A DRAMATIC WARM UP IS
EXPECTED TUESDAY. ALL OF THE STATE SHOULD CLIMB WELL INTO THE 70S
AND 80S BY TUESDAY...AND SOME SPOTS IN THE SOUTH COULD HIT THE 90
DEGREE MARK FOR THE FIRST TIME THIS YEAR. OVERALL...THE PATTERN
LOOKS TO REMAIN MOSTLY DRY THROUGH THE MIDDLE OF NEXT WEEK.
