Wet Start to November

Created by the NWS Twin Cities/Chanhassen WFO

We'll see scattered showers through the morning today, but by the time tick-or-treaters head out this evening, it is expected to be dry for all the little ghouls and goblins. We get one dry day on Sunday before a widespread soaking rain arrive for Monday and Tuesday. For the second half of next week, we'll be back in a dry and seasonably mild pattern.
