Brrr continues, although it'll be a bit warmer Tuesday: Lows overnight will dip below zero in parts of up north, with single digits above zero elsewhere. Tuesday highs will be in the lower 20s in parts of southern Minnesota, with teens to the north. Minnesota marked Veterans Day in a few ways this year: The ringing of a Liberty Bell replica that’s been mostly quiet the last 70 years; With two new Veterans memorials along Highway 22; And an array other events around the state, honoring everyone who has served in the military.
One way we marked the day was airing this APM Reports documentary that explores how the GI Bill of 1944 revolutionized the lives of millions of young veterans, institutions of higher education and American society at large. Give it a listen.
