Happy #Friday afternoon from the #Northland!
The very #warm and #windy day forecasted is taking place.
Unfortunately, this has led to some #wildfires across the region.
The #radar has picked up the smoke from one along the #NorthShore between #TwoHarbors and #SilverBay.
DO NOT BURN!

The #winds have definitely picked up along the #NorthShore, with a #High #Wind #Warning now in effect for the Cook County shoreline. Wind #Advisory continues for Lake County.
Already #gusts of 65 mph have been recorded in #GrandMarais. #SilverBay saw a gust of 59 mph.
The strongest winds are passing through now. Be careful outside.
The bow of the #Hesper #Shipwreck located just off the jetty in #SilverBay #Minnesota. The Hesper sank in a #LakeSuperior storm in 1905, and the wreck was subsequently broken apart by wave action and salvage attempts over the years. The site is now a protected historic site and a popular diving location.
Filmed with a Chasing Gladius Mini S #ROV
If you want to see more of the Hesper, I have a video on YouTube with exclusive wreck footage.
