Extreme Heat Warning issued July 14 at 10:44PM CDT until July 16 at 9:00PM CDT by NWS Twin Cities/Chanhassen MN

10:44 PM — July 15th, 1:00 PM

* WHAT...Heat index values up to 100. Overnight temperatures remaining warm in the lower 70s. * WHERE...Portions of central, east central, south central, southeast, southwest, and west central Minnesota and northwest and west central Wisconsin. * WHEN...Until 9 PM CDT Thursday. * IMPACTS...Hot temperatures and high humidity may cause heat illnesses.

Air Quality Alert issued July 14 at 12:12PM CDT by NWS Twin Cities/Chanhassen MN

12:12 PM — July 17th, 11:00 AM

* WHAT...The Minnesota Pollution Control Agency has issued an Air Quality Alert for fine particles pollution. The Air Quality Index (AQI) is expected to reach the Red or Unhealthy category. * WHERE...East central, central, west central, southeast, north central, and northwest Minnesota. * WHEN...Until 11 AM CDT Friday. * IMPACTS...Some members of the general public may experience health effects. Sensitive groups, such as people with lung disease (including asthma), heart disease, and children and older adults, may experience health effects. * ADDITIONAL DETAILS...Very heavy smoke is expected across the Arrowhead today, as large wildfires continue to spread. Hot temperatures, when combined with the air pollution, will exacerbate health impacts. A frontal boundary will then spread heavy smoke further south this evening into Wednesday morning, as it moves across northern and central Minnesota. The onset of smoke will be rapid. This boundary eventually passes through the Twin Cities and into southeastern Minnesota on Wednesday or Wednesday evening, bringing heavy smoke even further south. Additional rounds of heavy smoke are possible from Thursday through Friday morning across the alert area.

About

Lindbergh Campground is the main camping area within Charles A. Lindbergh State Park, situated on the banks of the Mississippi River near Little Falls in central Minnesota. The campground features 38 drive-in sites nestled among oak, aspen, and pine trees, with sites 1-15 offering 30-amp electric hookups for RV campers. The park accommodates RVs up to 50 feet, though all sites are back-in only. Seasonal amenities include flush toilets, showers with push-button controls, potable water, and a dump station. Vault toilets are available year-round throughout the park. Each campsite comes equipped with a fire ring and grill for cooking, plus a picnic table. The park visitor center sells firewood, ice, and offers canoe rentals. Beyond the main campground, the park offers two canoe-in/cart-in campsites along scenic Pike Creek and a group camp accommodating up to 30 people. Eight miles of trails wind through stands of hardwoods and prairies, along Pike Creek and the Mississippi River. The historic WPA-era picnic shelter and stone water tower add character to the day-use area.
