Neighbors shared generators and borrowed buckets of swimming pool water to bathe or to flush toilets. "We have a lot...

DULUTH -- The first clue that the drought of 2021 was getting serious was when the big paper birch tree in our front yard started shedding yellow leaves. In June.

The third sign came in mid-August when the Lester River simply stopped flowing into Lake Superior. https://www.dglobe.com/northland-outdoors/7169317-Drought-of-21-has-dram...
