The sun broke free of our morning cloud cover leaving us with a fantastic afternoon with highs climbing into the lower to middle 60s. Friday is shaping up to be a beautiful day for most, as we’ll see a mostly sunny to clear sky with highs ranging from the middle 60s to to lower 70s, including a high of 70 in Fargo.
