Warmest Week of the Month:
This week, especially September 22-24, brought the warmest temperatures of the month to most parts of Minnesota. Over 85 climate stations reported daytime highs in the 80s F, as high as 88°F at Marshall (Lyon County), Granite Falls (Yellow Medicine County), and Sabin (Clay County). MSP had its warmest reading of the month on Wednesday (September 23) with a high of 84°F.
A few climate stations even set new record high temperature: On the 22nd Brimson (St Louis County) reported a new record high of 77°F; on the 23rd Cass Lake (Cass County) reported a new record high of 820176F; and on the 24th Redwood Falls reported a new record high temperature of 86°F.
Temperatures are expected to decline the rest of the month, so on balance I would not be surprised to see September finish with cooler than normal monthly mean temperatures. This would be the first cooler than normal month for the state since last May.���������������������������������������������������������…
