What was the biggest news story this past week -- either in your community, nationally, or globally?
February 26, 2021 It never snows where I live. We may go years between snow showers that last maybe overnight. But this year, we were shut down across all 254 counties in the state for at least two or three days with snow and icy road conditions. Northern counties were shut down for up to a week. It has been a big deal in the news, and it has eclipsed a larger story. The COVID pandemic is abating. After another week of lockdown enforced by nature and a vaccination drive, the numbers are down. Some businesses in my area not only got relief from the return to warm spring weather, they are now allowed to return to 75% occupancy rates. Most businesses in my area have not seen this level since the pandemic lockdowns last year.
