Live Minnesota News Streams

Minnesotans know winter, and their local news knows it too. The Twin Cities of Minneapolis and St. Paul sit at the top of the country, where deep cold and heavy snow are simply part of life for much of the year, giving way to warm summers, ten thousand lakes, and the severe storms and tornadoes that can roll across the prairie. Following the weather here is not a hobby, it is a necessity.

NewsPlay carries KARE 11, the NBC station serving the Minneapolis-St. Paul market. Its newscasts cover state politics at the Capitol in St. Paul, the economy of a region built on major corporations, medical centers, and farming, transit and the everyday life of the Twin Cities, and of course that famous Minnesota weather from blizzards to summer thunderstorms. Sports fans can keep up with the Vikings, Twins, Timberwolves, and Wild through the seasons.

KARE 11 streams live and free on NewsPlay, with no cable bill and no signup. Whether you live in the Twin Cities, out in greater Minnesota, or you are a native watching from a warmer place, it is a simple way to stay close to the news of the North Star State.
