My one minute forecast for Friday, April 28, 2023. Sunshine will give way to clouds and showers as a cold front moves through the area. Temperatures will drop from the mid 60s to 50s late in the day. Expect a breezy and chilly weekend with scattered rain showers Saturday and then rain and sparse snow showers Sunday. Temperatures will warm nicely in the upcoming week with sunshine. #weather #weatherman #kttcwx #minnesota #tgif
