Memorial Day Weekend Forecast for Central Minnesota

Let's face it, 2020 has been rough so far. We could all use a nice long weekend to kick off the summer season here in Minnesota. You got it, but the could be some showers and thunderstorms mixed in.

It won't be a total washout by any means, but having some indoor plans would also be a good idea as there's a chance of precipitation each day of the holiday weekend.
