WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW IF YOU'RE
LOOKING FOR SUMMER CAMP DURING
THE PANDEMIC.
THE PANDEMIC. >>> THE WEATHER IS QUIET TODAY.
SO LET'S TALK ABOUT THE
WEEKEND.
WEEKEND.
WEEKEND. RAIN MOVES IN.
TEMPERATURES DROP.
TEMPERATURES DROP. AND THE CLOUDS BLOCK OUT MOST
OF THE SUN.

THIS COLD ONE IS FOR YOU,
SUNRISERS.
SUNRISERS. WE MADE IT TO FRIDAY.
LET'S CELEBRATE.
LET'S CELEBRATE. IT'S NATIONAL AMERICAN CRAFT
BEER WEEKEND.
BEER WEEKEND. WE'RE GOING TO AMERICAN BARS
AND BREWERIES.
AND BREWERIES. WE WANT TO KNOW, WHERE IS YOUR
FAVORITE PLACE TO GRAB A BEER?
USE THE HASHTAG SUNRISERS.
OF COURSE, WE ALWAYS GET
COMMENTS ON THESE QUESTIONS.
>> SO MANY OPTIONS.
BUT FIRST, THIS SHOULD MAKE YOU
WAKE UP.
WAKE UP.
WAKE UP. BEAUTIFUL FALLS FROM MINNEHAHA
THIS MORNING.
THIS MORNING. MAKES YOU WANT TO GET OUTSIDE.
ALICIA, LAURA, A LITTLE TOO
EARLY TO START DRINKING FOR
SOME.
SOME.
SOME. BUT
SOME. BUT OF COURSE, I PLAN TO DRINK
OUTSIDE A LITTLE LATER TODAY.
>> IT'S PATIO WEATHER.
FRONT YARD, BACKYARD, DECK,
WHATEVER.
WHATEVER.
WHATEVER. CERTAINLY CALLS FOR IT.
LOTS OF SUNSHINE.
WE'VE SLIPPED DOWN TO 45
DEGREES.
DEGREES.
DEGREES. SO A LITTLE CHILLY.
HOPE YOU BROUGHT YOUR TOMATOES
IN OVERNIGHT.
IN OVERNIGHT. BUT THE SUN WILL HAVE US POP UP
TO 60.
TO 60.
TO 60. AND WE'RE AIMING FOR 70 DEGREES
THIS AFTERNOON.
THIS AFTERNOON. ALMOST PERFECT TODAY BEFORE WE
START TALKING ABOUT RAIN FOR
THE WEEKEND IN A BIT.
>>> NEW THIS MORNING,
FIREFIGHTERS WRAPPING UP AFTER
A FIRE OVERNIGHT IN
MINNEAPOLIS.
MINNEAPOLIS. THIS HAPPENED AT THE CORNER OF
ELLIOTT AVENUE, ABOUT A BLOCK
FROM POWDER HORN PARK.
FIREFIGHTERS HAVE NOT RELEASED
ANY INFORMATION.
ANY INFORMATION. BUT WE'LL UPDATE YOU AS SOON AS
WE KNOW MORE.
>>> WITH MINNESOTA'S STAY-AT-
HOME ORDER ENDING AT MIDNIGHT,
THERE SEEMS TO BE A LOT OF
CONFUSION AS MINNESOTA IS
SLOWLY STARTING TO REOPEN.
>> WE KNOW THAT COME MONDAY IN
MINNESOTA, LOCAL STORES AND
STORES INSIDE OF MALLS CAN
REOPEN.
REOPEN.
REOPEN. ROSEDALE MALL IS GOING TO
REOPEN.
REOPEN.
REOPEN. SOME STORES ARE HOLDING OFF
BECAUSE THEY HAVE TO REHIRE A
BUNCH OF STAFF, RETRAIN THEM
AND REALLY CLEAN UP THE PLACE.
SO FOR EXAMPLE, MALL OF AMERICA
SAYS IT WILL REOPEN ON JUNE
1st.
1st.
1st. ALSO
1st. ALSO ON JUNE 1st.
THAT'S WHEN BARS, RESTAURANTS,
SALONS, AND MOVIE THEATERS CAN
LIKELY OPEN WITH DISTANCING.
OUTDOOR DAY CAMPS AND YOUTH
ACTIVITIES HAVE THE OKAY TO
STAY OPEN.
STAY OPEN. BUT MOST ARE EVALUATING SAFETY.
FOR EXAMPLE, IN EDEN PRAIRIE,
LEADERS ARE WAITING FOR
GUIDANCE FROM THE STATE ABOUT
SPORTS AND SUMMER PROGRAMMING.
>> WE'VE CANCELED EVERYTHING
THROUGH JUNE AT THIS POINT.
BUT WE'RE STILL HOPEFUL THAT
MAYBE SOMETIME THIS SUMMER,
WE'LL BE ABLE TO HAVE SOME
TYPES OF PROGRAMS FOR SOME
PEOPLE.
PEOPLE.
PEOPLE. >> THERE'S EVEN CONFUSION ABOUT
CAMPGROUNDS.
CAMPGROUNDS. MONDAY, SOME CAMPING WILL BE
ALLOWED BUT ONLY ON REMOTE
SINGLE CAMPING SPOTS ON FOREST
LANDS.
LANDS.
LANDS. THAT'S EXPECTED TO CHANGE BY
JUNE 1st.
JUNE 1st.
JUNE 1st. WHAT IS HAPPENING IN MINNESOTA
IS A STARK CONTRAST OF WHAT IS
HAPPENING IN MINNESOTA RIGHT
NOW.
NOW.
NOW. OVER
NOW. OVER THERE, THEIR DOORS ARE
WIDE OPEN.
WIDE OPEN. THAT IS SOMETHING ALICIA IS
GOING TO CLICK ON.
>> THANKS, ELLERY.
WE HAVE A HELPFUL TOOL THAT CAN
HELP YOU.
HELP YOU.
HELP YOU. IF YOU WANT TO KNOW WHAT IS
OPEN NEAR YOU.
IT'S AS EASY AS SENDING US A
TEXT.
TEXT.
TEXT. WE
TEXT. WE HAVE A SEARCHABLE DATABASE
RIGHT NOW.
RIGHT NOW. JUST TEXT THE WORD OPEN.
AND WE'LL SEND YOU A LINK.
>>> NOW, LET'S GIVE YOU SOME
PERSPECTIVE ON THE CORONAVIRUS
HERE IN MINNESOTA.
NEW NUMBERS WERE JUST RELEASED
YESTERDAY.
YESTERDAY. AND THEY SHOW A HIGH IN
TESTING.
TESTING.
TESTING. MDH SAYS 6,717 PEOPLE
WERETESTED.
WERETESTED. AND REMEMBER, 5,000 PEOPLE.
THAT'S THE GOAL.
5,000 PEOPLE GETTING TESTED A
DAY.
DAY.
DAY. WE
DAY. WE HIT THAT TWICE THIS MONTH IN
MAY.
MAY.
MAY. SO
MAY. SO WHAT WE HAVE BEEN TOLD, AS
WE TEST MORE, THEN WE'RE GOING
TO GET MORE POSITIVE CASES.
BUT THEN WHEN WE TAKE A LOOK AT
THE 14-DAY MOVING AVERAGE
CHART.
CHART.
CHART. THE NEW CASES ARE IN THE BLUE
BARS RIGHT HERE.
AND THE DOTS ARE FOR THE
AVERAGE TWO-WEEK PERIOD.
THAT TWO-WEEK PERIOD IS REALLY
IMPORTANT.
IMPORTANT. BECAUSE FROM THE LOOKS OF IT,
IT LOOKS LIKE THAT TWO-WEEK
AVERAGE IS GOING DOWN.
AND IT'S A GOOD SIGN.
BUT THEN THERE'S SOME CONTEXT
WE NEED TO GIVE YOU.
MDH IS CHANGING THE THINGS IT
REPORTS.
REPORTS.
REPORTS. SO YOU MIGHT SEE A DROP BUT IT
MIGHT NOT BE ACRIT.
MORE CONTEXT.
MORE CONTEXT. THE NUMBER KEPT GOING UP.
AND THEN WE ARE FINALLY SEEING
THIS CUNCH, SORT OF FLATTEN,
MAYBE HAVE A DOWNWARD TREND.
BUT WITH SOME RESTRICTIONS
PARTICULAR LIFTED, AS ELLERY
TALKED ABOUT, WHAT WILL HAPPEN
TO THIS DOTTED LINE?
WE'LL KEEP AN EYE ON THIS.
AND FOR YOU TO KEEP IN MIND,
THAT THIS DOESN'T MEAN WE'VE
QUITE TURNED A CORNER JUST YET.
>>> HUNDREDS OF YOU ARE
REACTING TO THIS INCREASE
STORY.
STORY.
STORY. BUSINESSES WERE REALLY BOOMING
IN WISCONSIN, AS A LOT OF THEM
REOPENED FOR THE FIRST TIME IN
WEEKS.
WEEKS.
WEEKS. NOW, AFTER THE STATE SUPREME
COURT STRUCK DOWN THE
GOVERNOR'S SAFER-AT-HOME ORDER.
RESTAURANTS AND SHOPS HAVE
OPENED WITH NO RESTRICTIONS AND
NO GUIDANCE FROM LOCAL AND
STATE GUIDANCE FROM LAWMAKERS.
SOME PEOPLE FROM MINNESOTA EVEN
DECIDED TO CROSS THE RIVER OVER
INTO HUDSON FOR A TASTE OF
NORMALCY.
NORMALCY.
NORMALCY. PETE FOSTER OWNS THREE
RESTAURANTS IN HUDSON AND IS
TAKING THE MORE CAUTIOUS
APPROACH TO REOPENING.
>>> WE DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO.
I MEAN, LEGALLY YES, WE CAN
OPEN.
OPEN.
OPEN. BUT
OPEN. BUT WE'RE JUST NOT READY TO DO
THAT YET.
THAT YET.
THAT YET. WE WANT TO BE RESPONSIBLE.
>> PETE SAYS, IT'S ALL VERY
CONFUSING.
CONFUSING. AND MAKING MATTERS EVEN WORSE.
THE STATE IS IN A POLITICAL
DIVIDE UNTIL THE DEMOCRATIC
GOVERNOR AND REPUBLICAN-LED
STATE LEGISLATURE FIGURE OUT A
PLAN.
PLAN.
PLAN. THE
PLAN. THE BURDEN WILL NOW FALL TO THE
COUNTIES AND CITIES TO TAKE
CONTROL.
CONTROL.
CONTROL. BOTH ST. CROIX AND PIERCE
COUNTIES TOLD US THEY'RE
WORKING ON GUIDELINES.
AND FURTHER EAST OVER IN
AUCLAIR ALLOWS BUSINESSES TO
OPEN WITH SOCIAL DISTANCING IN
PLACE.
PLACE.
PLACE. AND OF COURSE, HUNDREDS OF YOU
REACTING TO THOSE IMAGES COMING
OUT OF WISCONSIN.
AND OF COURSE, OUR SUNRISER
WITH MIXED REACTION.
ERIN SAYS, THE CONCERN, PEOPLE
LIVING AT HOME CAN STAY AT
HOME.
HOME.
HOME. AND
HOME. AND THE CONCERN FOR THOSE.
AND THERE COULD BE AN EXPLOSION
OF CASES.
OF CASES.
OF CASES. WE HOPE THAT IS NOT THE CASE.
CITY LITTLE ARE RELEASING THEIR
OWN RULES OVER RIVER FALLS.
THEY EXPECT TO RELEASE UPDATED
GUIDANCE LATER THIS WEEK.
AND THERE IS A MEETING TAKING
PLACE IN THE TOWN OF HUDSON,
WISCONSIN.
WISCONSIN. I KNOW THINGS ARE OPENING BACK
UP HERE IN MINNESOTA COME NEXT
WEEK.
WEEK.
WEEK. BUT
WEEK. BUT I DON'T KNOW IF I FEEL THAT
COMFORTABLE, GOING OUT YET.
>> I'M CURIOUS TO KNOW HOW IT'S
GOING TO LOOK WHEN THINGS
REALLY DO OPEN UP.
AND IF WE'RE GOING TO HAVE
PLACES PACKED LIKE THAT.
I GUESS WE'LL HAVE TO SEE.
ALICIA.
ALICIA.
ALICIA. THANK YOU.

REPRESENTATIVE BOBBY RUSH OF
ILLINOIS SAYS THE BILL DOES NOT
AUTHORIZE ANYONE TO ENTER YOUR
HOME, FOR WHATEVER REASON,
WITHOUT YOUR PERMISSION.
NOR DOES IT ALLOW THE
GOVERNMENT TO ENTER YOUR HOME.
IF PASSED, IT WOULD ONLY LET
THE SECRETARY OF HEALTH AND
HUMAN SERVICES GIVE GRANTS.
THERE IS NO LANGUAGE ABOUT
MANDATORY TESTING OR FORCED
