Chalk up another glorious weekend in Minnesota.
Our weather pattern across the Upper Midwest is stuck in bliss mode for now. The same hemispheric blocking pattern that has stalled weather systems across North America continues to bring sunshine and easterly winds under the back edge of cool Canadian high pressure this weekend.
