Duluth mayor wants to reestablish a downtown foot patrol to stem safety concerns

It seems clear that there are plenty of people who are dissatisfied with the way things are going now with the City. How do we do better? What should Roger's successor focus on?

Nice cool breeze tonight feels amazing! Has anyone had any issues since all of the heat and smoke last week? A friend has not felt well over the last few days. She was able to stay relatively cool and indoors during it, but it was just SO hot and smoky at the same time. I came across some good info when I consulted Dr Google. Sharing in case you might know someone affected.

Wildfire Smoke and Heat Exposure
What it does to your body and what to watch for
Wildfire smoke contains extremely small particles, often called PM2.5, that can travel deep into the lungs and may enter the bloodstream. These particles irritate the airways, make the lungs work harder, and trigger inflammation throughout the body. Even healthy people may notice coughing, a sore throat, burning or watery eyes, headaches, fatigue, chest tightness, or feeling unusually winded with activity.
Heat adds another layer of stress. Your body must send more blood toward the skin and increase sweating to cool itself. This can lead to dehydration, lower blood pressure, dizziness, weakness, nausea, headache, and a racing heartbeat. When smoke and heat occur together, the heart and lungs have to work harder at the same time, which can leave a person feeling exhausted, foggy, or generally unwell.
Seek prompt medical care for:
Trouble breathing, chest pain or pressure, fainting, confusion, blue or gray lips, severe weakness, persistent vomiting, a severe headache, or symptoms that continue to worsen even after moving indoors and cooling down.
People with asthma, COPD, heart disease, older adults, children, and pregnant individuals may be affected more quickly and should be especially cautious.
