🌲 Environment
Hot temperatures, little rainfall, and windy days have raised the fire danger index across North Dakota today, with warnings for areas in severe drought; experts advise residents to check burn restrictions and carry fire safety equipment during outdoor activities.
Drought has changed deer behavior, causing them to target grape vines near the NDSU Research Extension Center south of Minot.
Local harvesters reported that reduced vegetation left crops vulnerable, and experts recommend 8-foot fences for protection (a trusted deterrent over motion lights).
🏥 Health
Two longtime dialysis partners from Parshall—Fixico and Foote—received kidney transplants from the same donor after years on the waiting list.
Dr. Nadim Koleilat of Sanford Bismarck called the rare occurrence a blessing.
