August 2007 flooding[edit]

Are there any record flood stages that should be added, possibly from the Root River (Minnesota), the Whitewater River (Minnesota), or Rush Creek?--Appraiser 15:52, 24 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I'd say go for it, if you can find a legitimate reference for each one. Gopher backer 05:08, 25 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Lowest February Temperature[edit]

The top chart lists -64 during Feb 1996 in Embarras, MN as the all-time state low. The February Low in the "by month" listing, however, is from Tower, MN at -60. Shouldn't those match? ~ Shawn (talk) 16:16, 5 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Temperature records[edit]

I have noticed some changes in the temperature records. I don't believe that on January 25-31, 2019, the temperature was -80. I don't think there was any temperature even in the continental United States that has been that low. It may be the wind chill factor but not the actual air temperature. I believe that the actual lowest recorded temperature in Minnesota will still be at -60 degrees on February 2, 1996 in Tower, MN.

I also noticed that the heat index record was changed as well for Moorhead in July 2011. The record high heat index in Moorhead was 134 degrees F [1]https://www.dnr.state.mn.us/climate/journal/minnesotas-worst-heat-wave-record.html. The heat index that was mentioned on here is 148 degrees F. 47.12.180.193 (talk) 03:47, 29 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

November 30 2020?[edit]

I don't think there are any sources saying the all time recorded high temperature in Minnesota occurred on November 30, 2020 at St. Paul, Minnesota. According to historical weather records,^[1]^[2] the maximum temperature was 29 degrees Fahrenheit. I think the original weather record for November in this date should be reverted until an actual new record is set for November in Minnesota. 47.12.180.193 (talk) 04:19, 7 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
