Cooler weather replaces the weekend warmth.
Thursday could bring a soaking rain but confidence is low.
Lows range from about 35–50°F, with patchy frost possible early Monday.
Zumbrota turns cooler Monday following a cold-front passage, with more seasonable temperatures through midweek. Early-week shower chances look limited, with the better opportunity north of the area.
Thursday is the main period to watch: one forecast scenario brings a trough across the Upper Midwest and a soaking rain, while another holds the system farther west and leaves the region largely dry. Increasing disagreement among models means rainfall totals cannot yet be stated confidently.
Cooler air is more likely regardless, with late-week highs around 55°F. Longer-range guidance favors above-normal temperatures averaged over mid-to-late October, so the late-week cooldown may be temporary.
