 Hi, I'm Neel Koksal. As news happens, we connect with the people who are closest to the story. We've done it for more than 50 years now. So join me and Chris Howden on As It Happens weeknights at 10 on NPR News. The forecast for the Twin Cities, partly cloudy skies tonight, lows in the low 60s. Sunny Thursday, highs in the mid 80s. South winds up to 5 mph.
