A tornado touched down on Bug Creek Rd just east of Cotton. We're told by Sheriff Gordon Ramsay that it's a remote area with few buildings, but caused damage to trees.

Deer interrupts a meeting in Ely yesterday and gets all kinds of attention. Bears decide to top that… 😉
From EPD:
We are aware we have some visitors in town! We are monitoring their visit with the assistance of the MN DNR. We would appreciate your assistance by keeping things like bird feeders, garbage cans and any other easy meals indoors until they decide to head back out of town. Otherwise, enjoy watching them FROM A SAFE DISTANCE as they are most definitely wild bears and need to be treated with respect. We thank you for your cooperation!

Meeting in Ely this morning. Good conversation, compromise and collaboration. And then for some reason everyone got distracted. 😉

So much rain! Public Works crews are busy assessing damage, posting signs and beginning repairs. We are still compiling a list of closures.
In the meantime, please pay attention to signage! If you see unsafe road conditions that have not been marked, call 911 to report them.
