Friday was dry at MSP, with a high of 58° and a low of 40°. That changes overnight: rain showers are likely, with a 60% chance and a tenth to a quarter of an inch possible. Temperatures won't do the usual overnight slide. After a low around 49, they're expected to climb to about 52 by morning.
Saturday stays cloudy with a 50% chance of showers before 1pm and another tenth to a quarter of an inch possible. Roads could be wet for morning errands. The high is near 60 with a light southeast wind of 5 to 10 mph.
Now for the part parents care about. The only rain chance in Saturday night's forecast is a slight one, 20%, between 1am and 4am, well after the candy run. The evening should be cloudy and mild, with a low around 53 and a south-southeast breeze around 5 mph. Costumes don't need to be built around a parka this year.
Sunday looks like the pick of the weekend, partly sunny with a high near 66. Get the yard work and park time in then. Monday brings rain with a 100% chance, three quarters of an inch to an inch possible, and gusts as high as 35 mph. Plan a slower commute, and bring in the inflatable decorations before then.
