Attorneys represent Minnesota and the Twin Cities argued in court that the federal actions on the ground were causing, quote, tremendous damage and asked the court to immediately halt the immigration surge with a temporary restraining order. U.S. district Judge Kate Menendez, a President Biden appointee, denied that request while acknowledging that the surge, quote, has had and will likely continue to have profound and even heartbreaking consequences for the state of Minnesota. But she said that an injunction halting the operation would go too far and harm the federal government's efforts to enforce immigration laws. The operation has sent thousands of immigration agents to the city, sparking weeks of protests and the killing of two US Citizens by federal agents. Kat Laundsdorf, NPR News, Minneapolis.

Wind chill is basically how cold it feels outside. When you combine the air temperature with wind, it can cause frostbite and hypothermia. Dressing warmly can help protect people from wind chill conditions. That includes covering all exposed skin, says Jessica Lee from the National Weather Service.

Your ears, your nose, your fingers, your toes, even your cheeks and your chin. You want to keep all of your exposed skin covered and then, of course, limit or avoid time outside as well.

The U.S. house is expected Monday to take up a funding bill that will fully reopen the federal government. The Senate has already passed the spending package, which President Trump has endorsed. But unlike the record long shutdown this fall, the funding lapse does not affect the entire government and it may last only a few days. NPR congressional reporter Sam Gringlass says if the House passes the funding bill next week, the shutdown should have little impact this weekend.
