Minneapolis can expect a pleasant end to the first weekend of August. A system moving in from the west will bring changes to the weather. This will occur overnight and into the next morning, affecting the area with a cold front.
The current forecast indicates dry and mild conditions for now, with temperatures in a certain range. However, this is expected to shift as the new system approaches. Further details are available from KSTP 5 Eyewitness News.
