Minneapolis Climate

Humid continental climate. One of the coldest major hub airports in the United States. Winters are severe (−15 to −2°C, November–March) with heavy snow and extreme cold snaps. Delta's de-icing operation at MSP is among the largest in the US, but heavy blizzards cause ground stops and cascading delays. Wind chill below −30°C occurs multiple times each winter.

Summers are warm and pleasant (22–30°C) with occasional severe thunderstorms in June–August. Spring brings tornado risk in the broader region. MSP has a strong snow operations record. Cancellations happen, but the airport manages heavy snowfall better than many eastern hubs. Pack serious winter gear from November through March.
