- maxerickson 5y agoDuluth is on Lake Superior and relatively warm.
- karlshea 5y agoDepends on where in Duluth you mean. It’s significantly colder than Minneapolis, especially if you mean downtown which is at the bottom of a huge hill next to the lake. I was seeing regular temps in the 40s in May when it was upper 70s here in Minneapolis.
- maxerickson 5y agoThe lake has opposite effects in summer and winter.
- karlshea 5y agoYes, I lived in Milwaukee for most of my life and we saw the same things there from Lake Michigan. But you're saying Duluth is "relatively warm" but compared to what? Normal heating degree days: Duluth: 9,444 Twin Cities: 7,581 Portland, ME: 7,106 Duluth isn't particularly warm.
- maxerickson 5y agoRelative to the colder places in Minnesota is what I meant. But I guess there's not a lot of actual towns that are much colder.
- karlshea 5y agoAhh I see. You're right though, there are colder towns, like International Falls.
- SmellTheGlove 5y agoKeep in mind Portland, ME is coastal and fairly warm for Maine. I’d have to think it’s significantly colder up in Caribou or Fort Kent.
