Locust Grove Weather & Climate

West-central Minnesota, in the Otter Trail River Chain of Lakes Region , the climate is hot-summer humid continental. This region of Minnesota experiences some of the warmest summer temperatures in the state. As southwest winds blow down the slope of Coteau des Prairies, the air compresses and warms. This makes the already hot air even hotter and often causes record warm temperatures in the state, despite their higher latitudes. Winter is cold with lots of snow, and occasionally freezing rain and sleet. Below freezing temperatures are common in northern Minnesota in the wintertime. Common storm systems, such as Alberta clippers or Panhandle hooks sometimes develop into blizzards. Snowstorms are common early in the spring, but by late-spring temperatures begin to moderate.
