First snowflakes in the air for the year. The sloshy mess fell on me at McFarland Lake and all the way down the Arrowhead Trail into Hovland. Canadian Geese are heard headed south in the windy skies. Lows tonight forecasted into the 20's. Last of the tomatoes are able to fruit. Sunflowers are still in full bloom.
Colder temperatures and mixed precipitation have held back the progress of the Pagami Creek wild fire. The fire has grown to over 100,000 acres. This makes it the largest wildfire in Minnesota since the 1918 Cloquet/Moose Lake fire. It is larger than the 2007 Ham Lake fire that destroyed over 160 structures on the Gunflint Trail.
