Sunday's Twin Cities Marathon was canceled just hours before it was set to begin.
from the beginning and watching conditions really, really closely," Twin Cities in Motion communications director Charlie Mahler told CNN."We knew we were close to that line where we may had to cancel the race and then overnight the forecast conditions got even worse and that's how we had to make a call early in the early hours of the morning."The last time the marathon was canceled was 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. In 2007, the event saw a record high of 82 degrees.
Climate change has made above average temperatures like Sunday's more common in fall in Minnesota. Fall is the state's second-fastest warming season, and there are now 20 more above average fall days in the Twin Cities.© 2023 CBS Broadcasting Inc.
