How much will the weather affect times at Grandmas? IE minutes off marathon or half marathon.

If it is hot, times will be slower.
If it is cool, times will be faster.
If you are running it, you have no control over the weather so WTF are you worrying about?
Quit thinking and run.
Good Luck.
You're welcome.

Good advice for saturday morning. The time to do the thinking is now, before the race. Be informed and prepare accordingly.
TWO HARBORS
The weather forecast has improved (for runners) over the last few days. The forecasted high has dropped from about 78 down to 68. At 10am (2:30 into the marathon) it should reach about 60.
Scattered thunderstorms and rain showers thru the night. Slight chance during the race. Humidity should be about 70%.
The wind should be from the inland (NW to NNW) at 3-5 mph. That would be a crosswind from the right or slightly from the rear for most of the race (not off the lake).
DULUTH
High to 78 (66 by 10am). Otherwise much the same.
So the weather forecast isn't great. But it isn't terrible either. The elite runners who are worthy should have a decent shot at the standard.
