A frozen Lake Minnetonka back in early February. Lake Minnetonka is expected to have its ice-out within the next week, much earlier than last year’s

Ice-outs on Minnesota lakes about a week ahead of schedule

A quicker melt than last year could mean an earlier return to lake recreation.

Over 1" of Rain Expected Today - Slush Potential Tonight

Today will be windy, wet and wild with temperatures holding in the 40s, winds reaching into the 30s and no wait times for most local golf courses. Precipitation will fall heaviest this afternoon and tonight (a few embedded T-storms?) before ending as a period of slushy snow late tonight. An inch of sloppy snow may pile up in the metro, with enough to shovel in a band across central and northeastern Minnesota. Yeah, weather in Minnesota in late March is an acquired taste.

'The day the music died': Coronavirus tests New Orleans

There were the great fires of 1788 and 1794 and the multiple yellow fever outbreaks of the 1800s. Hurricane Betsy hit in 1965, Hurricane Katrina in 2005, and the memories linger in New Orleans like remnants of a bad dream.

Saturday Soaker May End as Plowable Snow North/West of MSP

Yesterday was a balm for the senses (not to mention my raging anxiety disorders). I think I passed numb about 30 days ago. Acceptance is nowhere in sight. A dry Friday gives way to a healthy soaking of rain Saturday as a storm pushes across Iowa into Wisconsin. Enough cold air will wrap into the storm for a changeover to snow, and a few (plowable) inches may shock and delight residents from Alexandria to Little Falls and Duluth. One more chance to take the sled out for a joyride.
