Backyard Almanac: Heat Week

In the early days of summer 1936, Duluth was inundated by heat. The stretch of days was an anomaly that hasn't been matched since. Each of those individual days still stands as record high temps for their respective date.

In 2024, we're dealing with a slightly milder heatwave in the Northland. If the days are too hot for you, Larry recommends getting out early in the morning to view spiderwebs dappled in morning dew. It's also worth getting out there for the summer flowers that are in abundance.

Choose your outings wisely. The temps look to be on the rise in the coming days.

You can hear Backyard Almanac every Friday at 8:20am on Northland Morning.
