Good Wednesday morning. Wow! Snap, Crackle & Pop and we’re not even talking about Rice Krispies! Lightning and thunder hit the early morning hours along the South Coast with some big Boomers and lots of rain. Forecasters says expect more of the same with highs in the mid 60s and lows in the mid 50s. Winds out of the Southwest at 10-15, Northeast tonight at 5-10 mph. Partly cloudy is the prediction for Thursday. In our news, the unemployment rate in Coos County for the Month of August was the same as July and June, still at 4.0%. Despite the weather, oh it will test some today, the Farmer’s Market will be set up on Central Ave in downtown Coos Bay from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Today is also a WBC Forum day, it is inside. Fire restrictions have been removed along the scenic section of the Rogue River. Say, there’s a Ribbon Cutting ceremony this morning in Empire. A new donut shop! Well, this is something we need to support. Especially in the Empire District which is going to pop soon with development. I’m gong to take the grandson to the donut shop today and celebrate its opening. Tumeric Spice of Life at NBPL. City of Coos Bay prepping for this weekend’s Bay Area Fun Festival with road closure announcements. Always a challenge on Saturday. Health advisory issued on Central Coast. Church arsonist on Central Coast arrested. Drunk driving charges possible following bus accident on North Coast. Fatal on Hwy. 20, Central Coast. Stolen vehicle out of Washington St. recovered in North Bend. In sport, area booster clubs meet today. Prep schedules for both MHS & NBHS. Prep volleyball last night a sweep for the Bay Area teams. Prep XC, North Bend debuts at Tugman. Prep football polls are out for this week. SWOCC soccer in Eugene today, and the Ducks bag a VB win at Princeton. Careful of that standing water on the roadways. Have a great Wednesday and as always, thank you for reading. Feel free to share with others. Thank you, Matt
