The advisory applies for central and north St. Louis, northern Cook and Lake counties, including the cities of Ely, Isabella and Hibbing and the tribal lands of the Bois Forte Band of Chippewa, including Lake Vermilion and the Nett Lake areas. It also includes Voyageurs National Park and the entire Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness.
