Special Weather Statement issued October 5 at 10:02AM CDT by NWS Duluth MN
Effective: Sun October 5, 2025, 10:02 AM
Expires: Sun October 5, 2025, 7:00 PM
Strong southerly winds around 15 to 25 mph with gusts 30 to 40 mph are expected today. Occasional localized gusts up to 45 mph are possible. Winds will turn westerly behind a cold front from west to east this afternoon. These strong winds may blow around any loose light objects. If you're driving a high profile vehicle, be sure to slow down, especially in open and elevated areas where winds may be stronger. The strong winds will combine with minimum relative humidity down to 40 percent to create elevated fire weather conditions through this afternoon. These conditions could lead to the rapid spread of fires. Check burning restrictions and fire danger before burning. For more information on burning restrictions for Minnesota, see www.dnr.state.mn.us/forestry/fire/firerating_restrictions.html.
