The Twin Cities broke a record Wednesday for the hottest April 12 after receiving snow less than two weeks earlier.

The thermometer reached 88 degrees by 5:15 p.m. Wednesday at MSP, breaking the record of 83 degrees set in 1931, according to the National Weather Service.

Dry heat and high winds have led the Weather Service to declare a "red flag warning" — dangerous fire conditions — for the Twin Cities metro area, south-central and southeastern Minnesota from noon until 8 p.m. Thursday.

There's a chance of snow this weekend as temperatures are predicted to drop to the low 50s by Saturday, Weather Service meteorologist Bill Borghoff said. If the forecast low of 35 degrees holds up Saturday night, any snow wouldn't accumulate, but if the temperature drops lower that could change.
