Rudolph was sure needed last night as fog continues into this morning. Clouds will lie low all morning before finally lifting out of the Northland tomorrow.

Temperatures remain mild in the upper twenties and low thirties today and will continue to warm the rest of the week as some places will reach the upper thirties by the weekend.

Rain will move in late on Thursday and continue into Friday. It will start across Northern Wisconsin before reaching east-central Minnesota and continuing up the Arrowhead. Only a tenth of an inch is expected as the rain will remain light, and by Saturday some wintery mix will be incorporated across the Range and northern Minnesota.
