Keep you and your family safe.

Also, there are newer baby coats made especially for car seats so they aren't too loose.

Baby it's cold outside, but too much bulk in a coat can create extra room in a harness. Thinner layers provide the same warmth, and the harness will still fit snugly.

Its the time of year for scams. 😒

And if you're concerned about a potential scam, contact the Social Security Administration (SSA) https://oig.ssa.gov/scam/

While the Town has offered some recycling services for the elderly & persons with disabilites, bringing or attending events can be hard.

Apparently the county has the ability to provide a scheduled pick up.

For those who may not have seen it yet, the area is anticipating heavy rains and potential flooding starting Friday and possibly through the weekend.

Stay safe and dry.

One of the biggest tidal flood events of the past 10-20 years (possibly since Hurricane Isabel at some locales), is expected Friday & Saturday. Those along tidal shores should get ready for exceptional tidal inundation! Tidal forecasts here: https://water.weather.gov/ahps2/forecasts.php?wfo=lwx

The resolution went into effect Monday and stays in effect through Dec. 9 unless it’s amended or terminated.

Looks like WSSC may have seen the community concern and is putting door hangers out!

Like with how Mount Rainier deals with WSSC projects, maybe Brentwood should reach out and request a short presentation from the PM, since this appears to be an official project.

WSSC might be able to tell the Town and anticipated schedule (which streets will be impacted and when).

Also the Town could use this opportunity to plan any storm water work that would utilize ARPA funds (which is an allowable spend category).
