Minnesota Now: May 18, 2026

Published 3 weeks, 2 days ago
Description

Parts of the North Shore and central Minnesota are still under evacuation orders after two separate wildfires broke out over the weekend. We'll get the latest from the DNR. Plus, the legislative session is over. What passed and what didn't make the cut.


According to a new investigation, Minnesota's hospitals are some of the least generous in the nation when it comes to helping patients cover their bills. A closer look at why.


Data also shows the percentage of Black Minnesotans in the Twin Cities who own a home has declined for the first time after rising for several years.


Plus, the season may be over for several Minnesota teams after playoff losses. But for others, it's just getting started. Our sports contributors will have the rundown.


Our Minnesota Music Minute was “Kdot (Untitled 05) ft. Desean Jones” by L.A. Buckner and our Song of the Day was “Disco 3 Love Sick” by Karate Chop, Silence.
