Season’s first ‘real’ winter storm hits the Northland

Once the year's first respectable snow storm arrived, it made up for lateness with enthusiastic wind gusts that measured as high as 65 mph near the harbor area in Duluth. By 2 p.m. Wednesday, spotters had reported 7 ½ inches of snow in Cloquet, 9 inches in Saginaw, 8 inches in Duluth and Esko, 7.2 inches in Moose Lake and 10 inches in Pine City although the snow was far from finished at that point.
