Minnesota Disasters at the Stearns History Musuem

Rachel Armstrong of Duluth tries to dig her car out of deep snow on Nov. 1, 1991, during the worst of the Halloween blizzard. (Bob King / News-Tribune)In this FeaturesCast, Arts & Cultural Heritage Producer Jeff Carmack visits the Stearns History Museum to talk about a new exhibit from the Minnesota Historical Society regarding the history of disasters in Minnesota.

From locust plagues to the I-35 bridge collapse to a good number of overly intense blizzards, Minnesota has seen its fair share of catastrophes. This exhibit not only explores the disasters themselves but also the nature in which Minnesotans responded to them and helped out their neighbors in various times of need. Photo credit.
