By the middle of the century, Minnesota’s climate will be remarkably different than it is today.

Northern regions of the state are projected to experience up to 25 fewer days with lows below freezing by 2060, and southern areas could experience up to 25 additional days with highs above 90 degrees.

That’s why the University of Minnesota Climate Adaptation Partnership has released top-line climate change summaries for nine geographic regions in Minnesota, using data from the climate mapping and analysis tool launched earlier this year.
