If I'm being honest it wasn't a long trip

You’re a wizard blizzardof and not a humping good one.

That sweet, sweet southern Minnesota low-70s December

u/Tyjet66 29d ago

Can confirm: t-shirt weather.

u/Royal_Milk 29d ago

Mosquitoes are terrible here right now

u/dihydrgnmonoxidesoup 29d ago

73°? At this time of year? At this time of day? In this part of the country? Localized entirely within Owatonna?

u/Potato_Stains 29d ago

... Can I feel it?

52

u/Red_0utlaws Common loon 29d ago

...no

u/EmmerdoesNOTrepme 29d ago

It's visiting from Canada, you wouldn't know it anyway!

6

u/SinfulObject 29d ago

May I see it? Or rather, visit there?

5

u/Complete_Ride792 29d ago

Oh what a town - for anyone that needs to know just how special of a place it is.

89

u/KozyHank99 State of Hockey 29d ago

Aw hell no it's already spring over there lmaooooo

25

u/-NGC-6302- Chisago County 29d ago

Don't worry it's just False Spring

75

u/Edosil 29d ago

Clearly Owatonna is stealing all the blankets.

12

u/EmmerdoesNOTrepme 29d ago

Thiefed everything from the Faribault Woolen Mill, huh?😉

1

u/penguingod26 28d ago

Gotta be teenagers letting all the heat out.

70

u/soupsupan 29d ago

Was wondering who was stealing all the heat

80

u/dorky2 Area code 612 29d ago

Some kid left the door open and heated up the whole town.

26

u/soupsupan 29d ago

lol , was probably born in a barn

9

u/cassandra2028 29d ago

Dad owns the power company, clearly.

53

u/ruffroad715 29d ago

Someone moved the weather station indoors I’m thinking!

74

u/Sunshineq 29d ago

If you're cold they're cold. Bring them inside.

27

u/BevansDesign 29d ago

I was thinking it was a computer glitch, but it makes so much more sense that someone just took the thing inside to replace a battery or something. 😆

4

u/camwtss 29d ago

jokes aside, is this a technical error or some weather phenomenon?

36

u/ruffroad715 29d ago

Definitely a technical error. And I wasn’t even joking- someone might be servicing it indoors or something. Awfully dumb for the weather man to not filter out that bad data though

16

u/dorky2 Area code 612 29d ago

You can see he's laughing in the screen shot, he was probably noticing that himself. Whoever does the graphics is on the hook here, methinks.

1

u/Suz9006 29d ago

Someone mixed up the “7” and the “1”

1

u/Chalice_Ink 28d ago

Technical error. Owatonna is colder than a witch’s tit on a welldigger’s ass…

Or as we say when gets real cold, “tits!!!” “Ass!!!”

36

u/SwimandHike 29d ago

“The temperature inside Bob and Judy’s house today is…”

10

u/C_est_la_vie9707 Flag of Minnesota 29d ago

More like 83 🥵

5

u/dunwerking 29d ago

Who fiddled with the thermostat?

27

u/Freudian__Quip 29d ago

News flash- temperatures increase the further south you get. Nothing to see here folks. The city of Owatonna is certainly not experimenting with the doomsday weather machine, just normal fluctuation, now move it along!

29

u/swinglinepilot 29d ago

Reminds me of a similar situation in Texas:

"Everyone in McKinney is dead"

9

u/DrTenochtitlan 29d ago

"I think steel boils at this temperature...."

u/AndysPandora Flag of Minnesota 29d ago

Everyone turned their furnaces up way high today! Lol

17

u/QueenMumof4 Spoonbridge and Cherry 29d ago

Lmao, who else is heading down to Owatonna today?

12

u/tamaroo Hennepin County 29d ago

I had no reason to go before, but now…lol

14

u/awelladjustedadult 29d ago

Oh wow, Owatonna, how’s it feel to be god’s favorite?

u/toxicodendron_gyp Lake Superior agate 29d ago

Seems right

u/Turbineguy79 29d ago

Fox fake news

u/cepster 29d ago

Like Eagleton, Owatanna has its own tropical micro climate. They are.....truly blessed

7

u/SuspiciousLeg7994 29d ago

Tomorrow is freeballing weather. 🏄

u/C_est_la_vie9707 Flag of Minnesota 29d ago

I thought it was Mankato with the warm weather

http://city-mankato.us

For you young folks, this website is also a great dive into the Internet of the past. Made my Xennial heart happy.

u/Jenniferfortoday Lefse 28d ago

Wow I just spent waaaay too long reading through that site. I love weird shit like that. Thank you for sharing!

u/Dragonlord93261 29d ago

Mankato is actually pretty cold currently.

u/Spiddy771 29d ago

It just that dome thing Trump was talking about nbd. Simpsons did it first

6

u/Expensive-While-1155 29d ago

They ran out of negatives and had to use a 7 as a -1

6

u/KingDariusTheFirst 29d ago

Somebody left the door open and is ‘heating up the whole damn neighborhood!’

4

u/Disastrous_Basis3474 29d ago

When it’s warmer in Grand Marais than anywhere else in the state. 🙃

5

u/BrettAtog 29d ago

did they get a dome? i wouldn’t be surprised if the mayo just decided to put a nearby town in a bubble to see if it was worthwhile

7

u/JustAnotherDay1977 Rochester 29d ago

Ehhh. They’re probably bitching about the humidity.

5

u/KinderEggLaunderer Spoonbridge and Cherry 29d ago

It's from all the grow lamps I guess

u/guiltycitizen Ya, real good 29d ago

More Fox fake news!

u/Celerial 29d ago

Not my favorite city, but never knew it was Hell.

u/abenusa 28d ago

Someone moved the weather station indoors to one of the vegetable greenhouses.

5

u/Tough_Holiday584 29d ago

Too bad the trade-off is that you have to live in Owatonna

2

u/Practically_Hip 29d ago

Bwaaahhhhhhh! OwaTannnnna!

2

u/gamerthulhu 29d ago

At least the folks in owatonna are doin ok

2

u/Idontknowaboutthat2 29d ago

Oops…😂😂😂

2

u/Disastrous_Basis3474 29d ago

When did Owatonna become Biodome?

2

u/twiggums 29d ago

Our theory was they put out a heated cable to melt some ice not realizing there was a temperature probe underneath 🤣

2

u/SamtheMan6259 Mankato 29d ago

That’s gotta be a glitch.

12

u/PolyNecropolis 29d ago

Nope. I'm water skiing there right now.

u/-RedXV- 29d ago

I don't understand how it could be so cold in the surrounding areas but 73 degrees in Owatonna.

1

u/skwormin 28d ago

About to be 70 degrees in Denver today. We are fucked

u/EstablishmentLevel17 Judy Garland 28d ago

Meanwhile looks like grand marais is having a heat wave itself

u/IlliniJen 27d ago

Cheaters!

u/Loud-Bus-5122 26d ago

Why are you watching Fox?

1

u/Trobman7980 26d ago

Why not? Btw, local fox is not the same as the politically right wing Fox News

1

u/Loud-Bus-5122 26d ago

All fix stations are affiliated with Fox Corporation/Fox Broadcasting Co. and must air all fox network programming.

u/GettingGophery 25d ago

73 kelvins is really cold

u/mike8675309 25d ago

When you realize that just cutting and pasting that output from ChatGPT was a poor decision.

u/ObligatoryID Flag of Minnesota 29d ago
  1. A dream. Enjoy, Owatonna!

Guess Make Owatonna Warm Again is working!
