City of Duluth press release

Duluth has received a couple of inches of wet snow and mixed precipitation since yesterday, and City of Duluth snow operations crews have been out working on clearing main roads throughout the event.

Operations has been focused on mains initially but is moving into residential streets as the snowfall lulls this morning. Our thanks to them for keeping those main roads open for ambulances, emergency vehicles, etc.

The National Weather Service in Duluth is forecasting another inch or two between now and tomorrow. If and when snowfall does pick back up, plow operations will refocus on mains until the snowfall subsides, at which time the focus will go back to clearing residential streets and alleys. Residents can do their part in helping with street maintenance operations by remembering to get out and move their cars on Sunday between 4pm and 8pm from to the opposite side of the road.

Howie: Bayfront still may be Duluth’s best idea

Bayfront remains one of the few places where the city still functions the way a healthy city is supposed to function: as a shared public space where people continue gathering together because they genuinely want to be there. Every summer, Duluth remembers that again.

Howie: While others talked revival, Gary Doty did the work

Survival, for many old industrial American cities during the late twentieth century, became the central challenge itself. Doty helped Duluth survive long enough to rediscover confidence in itself again. That is not a minor civic legacy.
