Here's your local news at a glance for Wednesday, the 29th of July.
Good morning, Dubuque.
🏘️ Community
The Dubuque County Fair Association now owns all 96 acres of the fairgrounds, up from 30 acres, to support repairs and renovations for barns + education center.
The association plans to raise about $20 million during the 73rd County Fair that runs through Sunday.
🌲 Environment
Corn fields across Iowa are boosting humidity levels today as transpiration raises dew points into the low 80s in Dubuque, making outdoor activities feel like a sauna (a natural process that helps crops while intensifying the heat).
🏛️ Government
The Iowa DNR announced changes for the 2026-2027 deer hunting season, including a new two-zone system, later license sales at 9 a.m. on August 15, updated treestand rules, and a ban on party hunting in Zone B.
Hunters should review the new regulations (especially if in Zone B).
