Long day, longer in some spots
Saturday will be the longest day of the year, but longer in some places of Minnesota than others. Minneapolis will receive 15 hours and 37 minutes of sunlight, but Brainerd will get 15:48 and Grand Marais 16. St. Vincent, in the state's far northwest corner, will be the most sun-drenched, with 16:12. BILL McAULIFFE
