Will we break the top 10 for snow this season?
Good morning,
Our latest snow system is gently pushing snowfall totals higher in Minnesota. This system lacks the vigor of previous snow blitzes, but it’s gradually moving us up the ladder toward a likely top 10 snowiest season on record for the Twin Cities. Get the latest on Updraft.
🎧 House Speaker Melissa Hortman, DFL-Brooklyn Park, and Senate Majority Leader Kari Dziedzic, DFL-Minneapolis, have used their slim DFL majorities to break a logjam over progressive legislation. And Rep. Lisa Demuth, R-Cold Spring, has made history herself as the first Black woman to lead the House Republican caucus. Coming up at noon on Friday, MPR News host Mike Mulcahy talks to three of the most powerful women in state government about what's happened at the Capitol so far this year and what's next on their agenda. | |

| | Lakota spiritual leader Jim Miller, founder of Dakota 38+2 ceremonial ride, dies at 74 |
James “Jim” Gerald Miller, 74, Lakota spiritual leader and founder of the Dakota 38+2 rides, died on March 3 from cancer at his home near Porcupine, S.D.
His nephew Todd Finney, whose Dakota name is Ta Can’te Was’te Yuha Omani (He Who Walks With His Good Heart), described Miller as a veteran, a dreamer and a leader.
He said Miller often inspired others through his actions and was known to embrace strangers like family. Miller developed an aggressive form of cancer similar to other US soldiers exposed to agent orange during the Vietnam War, according to Finny. | |
