The St. Louis County Board, which is scheduled to meet near Floodwood next Tuesday, December 12, is shifting its meeting location due to an issue with the furnace in the building where the meeting had been scheduled.

The new location is the Floodwood Downtown Fair Center, 107 West 7th Avenue, Floodwood.

The meeting had been scheduled for Cedar Valley Town Hall, however, the County was notified today that a furnace issue has left the building without heat, and likely wouldn't be repaired in time for Tuesday's meeting.

Here is a weather model (HRRR model) forecast of near-surface smoke trends through the rest of today into tonight. Overall note is that a cold front moving south through northern Minnesota will result in winds shifting to northwest and then northerly, which will bring the plumes of wildfire smoke into the Arrowhead and eventually down towards the Twin Ports and into northwest Wisconsin towards the very late evening/overnight hours. The smoke is highlighted in brown, with darker shades indicating higher smoke concentrations. US National Weather Service, Duluth, Minnesota
