WEATHER FORECAST

Here’s your Sunday evening forecast for January 16, 2022 from KSTP Meteorologist Matt Serwe.

Some lingering flurries or light snow showers are possible heading into Sunday night. No accumulation is expected. Temperatures will be rather pleasant for the middle of January through the start of the week. Highs in the 30s are expected Monday and Tuesday. Our next clipper low comes in Tuesday, bringing wind gusts around 40 mph, and some light snow in northern Minnesota. There is a small chance for freezing drizzle in the Twin Cities Tuesday, but that is more of “just keep an eye on it” at this point.

After the low moves out, temperatures fall quickly on Wednesday. Highs stay in the single digits on Wednesday and Thursday, and some cities could stay below zero all of Thursday! Dangerous wind chills from -25° to -30° are possible at times from Thursday morning through early Friday.
