The new season of Sold a Story is coming tomorrow. I've seen speculation about it. I think there will be some surprises. I'm interested to know what you think. First two episodes tomorrow. Then one a week on Thursdays until Nov 19. features.apmreports.org/sold…

A antique store box stuffed with recipes -- some a century old -- sent a MN woman on a search to find the owner's kin. Then she drove 150 files to deliver the recipe box to a grateful granddaughter. #land10kstories kare11.com/article/news/loca…

"I've met many of the kids who came home. It's a lot to overcome, but they're great shining lights in the search, in the problem of missing children." Patty Wetterling, whose 11-year-old son Jacob Wetterling was kidnapped when biking home and never again seen alive, speaks about trauma, healing and her advocacy work on other missing children cases, in a new interview with 20/20 Co-Anchor Deborah Roberts. Patty speaks with Deborah Roberts during a new episode of '20/20: The After Show' about her longstanding advocacy work for missing children and what she's learned from missing children who have returned home. Listen to full episodes, including “The After Show,” on the 20/20 Podcast feed. Watch on Hulu and YouTube.

Thanks for dedicating your career to exceptional community service, Paul! An outstanding talent and human!
Well that's a (career) wrap! Thanks to all of you who have watched and listened to this 4-year old weather obsessed Minnesota kid who launched a 40-year weather career. I retire tomorrow. It's been an honor! #mnwx mprnews.org/story/2026/04/29…

Quite a sight. A tornado that was on the ground, just lifted near Amboy, Minnesota as MPR News photojournalist Ben Hovland captured it. Great video. #mnwx

It's happening! The weather maps just swerved into a true spring pattern ahead. 🌞 Sunday could be warmest day in 6 months. Last 80F was on October 4! (91F)🌡️ And get ready for some thunder and a severe risk especially Monday evening. ⚡️ #mnwx mprnews.org/story/2026/04/10…
