Forecast

Weather patterns in Elk River cause changes in barometric pressure as air masses move in and out of the area. Low pressure brings clouds and precipitation, while high pressure brings fair skies.

Elk River's elevation of about 900 feet above sea level and surrounding flat landscape allow weather systems to move freely, causing pressure to vary. This allows cold air from Canada to push in and warm air from the Gulf of Mexico to move up.

In winter, pressure is often low, bringing cold and snowy weather. In summer, pressure is often high, bringing warm and sunny weather. Spring and fall see more variable pressure, leading to changing weather patterns.

Elk River has a humid continental climate, with large pressure fluctuations between seasons. This leads to a mix of weather conditions throughout the year, including cold winters and warm summers.
