Not unusual at all

Duluth Harbor Cam

Much of the traffic for the past few days has been hidden in fog and rain.  Not unusual for May in Duluth.

And I'll never forget my first night in Duluth. I was 10, maybe 11, and the whole family—parents, little sister, and self—were camped out in the Hotel Duluth, only a block (or maybe two) from the lighthouse (and foghorn) at the harbor entry. And yes, it was a foggy night. Every few minutes that horn would go off and literally rattle the furniture. And every time the horn stopped to take a breath a giant friggin' searchlight would shine right directly into the window. Not that anybody was sleeping, or anything like that. 

Not unusual for May in Duluth.
