2025-2026 Snow Thread
Hey all, looks like our first taste of winter tomorrow. It appears the snow will start around 7-8am and change over to rain around 2pm. Of course, that’s just based on my weather sources. They all seem to use varying models and, therefore, varying forecasts.

Lost Cat Cherry Tree Bend
Lost black and white, tail-less cat. Disappeared 2 weeks ago from Bright Road which is off Cherry Tree Bend. Have been trying to find her. Very friendly and confident so hoping she's just been on a long visit with one of the neighbors I haven't been in touch with yet. Called CSA and animal control when she first went missing.
Thanks for any help

Restaurant Lamb Grill Latin Cuisine - Hastings Square
Recently found this place and had it twice in the last month.
Firstly, the owner (assumption here but he was the one cooking) is an extremely nice guy. For that alone, I hope the place succeeds.
We ordered the birria tacos and nachos. Both were very good. And the portion sizes were large for the price.
We've had birria tacos from a number of different restaurants including our own homemade ones. These are every bit as good.
