Another wildfire has burned nearly one-thousand acres in Hubbard County, in northern Minnesota.  Southwest winds pulled the smoke into central Minnesota and the Twin Cities area for Saturday.  

Air quality in Minneapolis-St. Paul, Duluth, Mankato and Rochester was rated very poor early yesterday (Saturday) by the National Weather Service.  An air pollution warning was finally allowed to expire last night.
