Pinetree	05/01/2025 10:31AM   WhiteWolf: "From NWS DLH morning discussion 5/1 Rivers remain elevated across northern MN with both the Vermilion River at Crane Lake and South Kawishiwi River near Ely being near action stages" The northern 1/3rd of Minnesota has been getting more rain and had more snow than further south.
Moonpath	05/01/2025 08:49AM   In my view, this spring has brought a lot of rain all over the midwest. Its been hard to find 2 or 3 non rainy days in sequence to get much outdoor work done. The good news is that it is hopefully ending drought conditions in the midwest.

You will want this one also if you don’t have it. I use it routinely to spot overnight lows, etc. Disable the default NWS Hazards option and select Observations: NWS Weather and Hazards
