Wow! For the first time in a couple weeks, simultaneously the air quality is good, the temperatures cool and the humidity is low, so we can open the windows in the house and turn off the AC. #mnwx

The air purifiers are turned up a notch. I'm glad I replaced the furnace filter just last week. I might have to change it again next week. The bathroom fan has to be on, otherwise the smoky air comes down into the bathroom. The sunset was red-orange light. The tall buildings only 5 blocks away are no longer visible from my house. Wildfire smoke in northern Minnesota and NW Ontario is nasty. #MNwx #MNastodon

Replying to @JillsJoy@NerdJoy.social
An hour ago up in Grand Marais (closest to the wildfires). Notice that "Hazardous" is anything above 300, and this is ONE THOUSAND above 300. Here at my house, it was 424 half an hour ago and is now 409. I'm hoping it will continue to trend down, but Grand Marais is going up. 😷 #MNwx #MNastodon

Good morning from Minneapolis, a fine Midwestern city known for our flour, our sailboats, our Saturdays in the parks, and our cries of defiance and not of fear. Can you dig it? Yes we can. Our residents have been very badly treated by our own federal government but we try not to dwell on it. The rest you know from books you've read. Quite early Saturday morning it's 69℉/21℃; light winds; cloudy skies; barometer 29.99" if you like your air pressure measured with a tube of mercury and a yardstick. Sunny today. High 85℉/30℃. So through the night rode Paul Revere; And so through the night went his cry of alarm To every Middlesex village and farm,— A cry of defiance and not of fear, A voice in the darkness, a knock at the door, And a word that shall echo forevermore! For, borne on the night-wind of the Past, Through all our history, to the last, In the hour of darkness and peril and need, The people will waken and listen to hear The hurrying hoof-beats of that steed, And the midnight message of Paul Revere. —Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, from Tales of a Wayside Inn, 1863 "Revere continued to make tea sets after the revolution, a fitting reminder of his revolutionary past. This one dates to 1792-93, and although the set had been broken up through inheritance by Templeman’s descendants, the pieces were eventually reassembled, loaned, and then gifted to the MIA in 1960 by James Ford Bell—founder of General Mills—and his wife, Louise. Much later, two of the original teaspoons were reunited with the service. Today, the tea service is beloved by tour guides who continue to unlock this tale of early American history for schoolchildren visiting the MIA." https://new.artsmia.org/stories/once-at-mia-unlocking-american-history #mnwx #art #horses #silversmith #tea #Minneapolis #defiance #July4

Howdy from Minneapolis where we're outstanding in our field — day.

Quite early Saturday morning it's 63℉/17℃; mostly sunny; light southeast winds; an even 30 inches/1016 mm of mercury counts as Fair on the ol' barometer; visibility 10 miles at the airport.

  • Long duration period of heat and humidity begins Sunday, persisting through the week. Monday will be the hottest day, but heat impacts to be felt all week with little overnight relief and therefore a building heat stress.

Stay cool.

Good morning from Minneapolis where a dry and cool day is in the offing. Quite early Thursday morning it's 36℉; fair skies; light winds; visibility 10 miles at the airport. High temperatures in the mid 50s today and Friday. Frost advisories at night. Count only the sunny days. —Sundial at Lyndale Park Rose Garden, Minneapolis #mnwx #Hinterlandia #DogsOfMastodon #quotidian

Good morning from Minneapolis. Today Showers and thunderstorms likely, mainly after 5pm. Some of the storms could be severe. Increasing clouds, with a high near 73. Shall I compare thee to a summer’s day? Thou art more lovely and more temperate: Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May, And summer’s lease hath all too short a date; Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines, And often is his gold complexion dimm'd; And every fair from fair sometime declines, By chance or nature’s changing course untrimm'd; But thy eternal summer shall not fade, Nor lose possession of that fair thou ow’st; Nor shall death brag thou wander’st in his shade, When in eternal lines to time thou grow’st: So long as men can breathe or eyes can see, So long lives this, and this gives life to thee. #mnwx #lovely #temperate #Hinterlandia
