The Twin Cities could get nearly an inch of rain Thursday as temperatures drop during the day, leaving the possibility for a little slush and snow, but no accumulation. It was already snowing early Thursday in western parts of the state as the cold front moves in. Areas in the northern part of the state could get 2-3 inches of snow on the grass, forecasters say.

Friday's temperature of 93 degrees measured at Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport broke the record high of 91 degrees, set on this date in 1911. Friday also marked the hottest day in the Twin Cities since Sept. 12 of last year, and it looks like another hot day is in store for Minnesotans on Saturday.

Minnesota is grilling up near-record high temperatures this Fourth of July holiday. Expect about 100 degrees, with dewpoints in the mid-70s that create a heat index up to 112 degrees Wednesday afternoon. Topping 100 is rare in the metro – it's only been done four times since 1990, WCCO says.
