Thank you for joining us new this midday.
Governor Walls just signed a bill that
will create greater access to voting.
We're going to ensure that
voting is accessible and
that everybody has access.
Everybody has an onramp.
We're going to make voter
registration a bridge,
not a barrier to to participati.
The Democracy for the People Act
includes automatic voter registration,
language access resources,
pre registration for 16 and 17 year olds,
and permanent absentee voting.
Some of these measures will be
implemented as soon as 2024.
Both the Anoka Hennepin School District
and Brooklyn Park Police are hog
to ease some worries this after.
Both say a social media post threatening
school violence is not credible.
The threat first appeared in
Florida on Snapchat and started
being shared by local students
because of the message is sprea.
Now authorities wanted to
let parents know about it.
And we just got word that Adam
Pattishaw will spend more than
seven years in prison for killig
a man in a crash nearly a year .
The Saint Paul man admitted to taking drugs,
including fentanyl,
before he rear-ended an SUV in Brooklyn
Park while fleeing police in a stolen truck.
The man driving the SUV,
Daniel Fisher, died.
His wife, Katie,
had to have multiple surgeries for her
injuries that range from a brain bleed.
To a fractured back,
Pattershaw also received a concurrent
48 month sentence for injuring Katie.
Well tonight the family of missg
Winona mother Madeline Kingsbury
is holding a prayer vigil in hos
of her safe return.
The 26 year old has been missing
for a month and police do beliee
her disappearance is suspicious.
The Facebook group Finding Madee
Kingsbury has been working with
Winona police on specific leads.
Tonight's prayer service is at 7:30 in
the Veterans Memorial Park in Winona.
Work is happening now to draw pe
to downtown Minneapolis post pandemic,
Outgoing downtown canceled.
President Steve Kramer tells our Devon
Rami he likes the odds of a comeback.
I'm saying, Devon, that I'm.
I'm betting on downtown everybo,
Whether you think so or not,
you really have a stake in the
success of downtown Minneapolisn
terms of its role in the econom.
And really being the front doorr
our our city and our state, Cras
last day on the job is December.
He says the city has hired a fim
to find his successor, which tho
hope to announce in early Octob.
Well, tonight the Uptown Theater
Minneapolis is reopening for
the first time in two years.
The newly renovated space is now a live
event venue that can seat 2500 people.
It's kickoff concert tonight
features Yam House.
It's going to be fun.
It's good to see that up and going again.
And maybe you want to go inside
because maybe there's going to
be some rain. There you go.
Yeah, it seems like could be
the perfect weekend for that.
Even early into next week we're going
to turn into an unsettled patte.
But we'll have the chance
for rain almost each day,
getting into next week,
at least for the middle to late
part of next week, and then we'l
start to carry up late next wee.
But look at Radar. Already acti.
I mean we're finding a little bf
some sunshine here in the care 11 yards.
That's nice.
But that's not everywhere, righ?
You have showers just to
the South here over Scott,
the Cody counties and stretching
South of 94 into western Wiscon.
You have some red Yellow Bulls eyes in there.
I'm indicating some rain comingn
a bit more intense in some spot.
You may even hear a few rumbles of Thunder.
We'll have the chance for Thunder going
into the evening hours and overnight hours.
But if you're watching from, you know,
north Metro and right now in Minneapolis, St.
Paul area, Golden Valley, better shot,
we'll find some showers a little bit.
Later on this afternoon and eve,
we're not looking at anything severe.
Just have that Care 11 mobile ap
ready so you can track out the storms.
You'll have to make those plans
around the rain just because ths
are just going to be so isolate.
And you know, not really much widespread,
right? So here's look at the next 12 hours.
You have that rain shower chance here.
Going into the afternoon and evening,
you'll see temperatures start
to come down to the upper 50s.
As you get into the overnight hours too,
you'll see temps pretty much
steady there in the 50s.
Better shot rain overnight.
So keep that in mind for any pls
maybe celebrating Cinco de Mayo.
Here's your 7 day forecast.
It's not the best, but at least
by next week, Rena,
I think we'll have a lot of gre.
Things will get pretty lush around here,
so that's something to look forward to.
Boy, those 70s look great too.
We finally turned that corner. Thanks, Guy.
