Weather

After a phenomenal first few days of May, the weather pattern across North America is about to change. A cooling trend can be expected just in time for the Fishing Opener and your Mother’s Day weekend that could lead to a widespread frost and/or freeze across much of Minnesota and Wisconsin.

Despite getting over three quarters of an inch of rain officially at MSP Airport on Wednesday, this April will go down as the driest since 2009. Certainly has been a far different look at what mid spring could look like in the Twin Cities when compared to the last several years. We have certainly seen our fair share of miserable spring weather the last 5 years or so with plenty of late season snow, clouds, and rainfall.

A dog in the North Loop neighborhood was not having it with the rain Tuesday. 

The Twin Cities metro was already up to a 1/2-inch to an inch of rain after a few hours of steady rain Tuesday morning.  

It’s finally that time of year when much of the world transitions from its winter dormancy and springs to life.

Many people are feeling isolated at home amid the pandemic and FOX 9's Ian Leonard is working to raise people's spirits.
