With plenty of sunshine and light southerly winds, temperatures soared to record territory over parts of Minnesota. The air temperature reached 72 degrees (so far) at the Twin Cities International Airport on November 14, breaking the old record of 71 set in 1990, (period of record 1872-2025). This is the warmest temperature recorded so late in the season for the Twin Cities. A weak cold front is poised to knock temperatures down to just merely above normal for the next few days, possibly marking the last 70-degree temperatures of the year for southern Minnesota.
The normal high temperature at the Twin cities for November 14 is 43 degrees, so a maximum temperature of 72 degrees is 29 degrees above normal.
