Twilight tonight at the windswept, derelict St. Olaf Church near Tioga, North Dakota. The old tower continues its awkward twist — but is still hanging on. Looking around: The last color of sunset is fading, and billowing clouds from thunderstorms in eastern Montana are visible on the horizon

Blizzard breaks up ice pack at Apostle Islands caves, likely ending foot access for the winter

Need to clear five inches of light, powdery snow from the driveway? I’ll take this Duluth-made “Yooper scooper” over a snowblower every time. No lifting, and it puts the snow exactly where I want it — without the wind pushing it back in my face
