WCCO Radio will become an ABC News affiliate for the first time Thursday afternoon, an historic shift for the station after the closure of CBS Radio News. "You will not miss a beat in terms of coverage of things," says WCCO's Brand Manager Brad Lane.

The first face the Artemis II crew will see upon their return to Earth will be the face of a U.S. Navy Sailor.

@pdouglasweather @WeatherLoon Thank you for the detail and good to see your face!! If I had a driveway, the stakes would remain. I do still have shovels propped against our back hut....should prob leave those too 🙄

So nice of everyone who reached out: WCCO Radio is owned by Audacy, we are not shutting down. CBS Radio's Hourly News Updates will end in a couple months. Not sure what that means- will we find another provider like Fox or ABC Radio? Will we fold national news into our local updates? TBD.

From new school safety drills to lawn signs asking residents to vote "YES," there's plenty to consider with the school year in full swing. Not to mention a statewide teacher shortage. Laura Oakes takes "A Closer Look" at teachers on the front lines.
