For those weary from all the snow around Carson City so far this month, about the only good news to share is that your weekend is here and there's plenty to do indoors if winter recreation isn't your thing.

From workshops to live music, a skate demo at The WheelHouse and even a special "Caturday Night Out" at the Carson Nugget to help homeless felines in the area, there are places to go around Carson City where you can keep warm, stay dry and have fun!

Snow and rain, rain and snow and even thunder and lightning strikes. We've seen it all this week. If you're living in the Carson City region, you know all you have to do is wait a few minutes to have the weather change on you. Welcome to Friday, Feb. 15, 2019 and the beginning of the President's Day weekend. Carson City schools are closed today and Monday for the holiday. Gusty winds and another round of snow is expected today so take notice and be careful on the roadways.

In the tradition of TED, a nonprofit organization devoted to Ideas Worth Spreading, comes TEDxCarsonCity, a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience.

The weekend is here and your Saturday around Carson City is chockfull of activities.

Despite snow on the ground, a Chinese New Year celebration will take place in downtown Carson City between the Nevada State Museum and the Children's Museum of Northern Nevada.

The ninth annual Carson High School Safe Grad Safe and Sober Run/Walk occurs at the CHS track.

And the 20th annual Feast of Chocolate, a scholarship fundraiser for the American Association of University Women (AAUW) Capital Branch, is being held at the Plaza Hotel Event Center.

Well, Carson City, here we are at the end of another work week. And if you love to play in the snow on weekends, then there's good news on its way.

A chance for more white stuff is in the forecast for our area starting later Friday afternoon through Sunday.

Happy Groundhog Day, Carson City! While the prognosticating Punxsutawney Phil looks for his shadow in western Pennsylvania, our region is bracing for more Winter weather due to arrive this weekend.

Phil might speak for his neck of the woods, where he bats about .390, but I would keep an eye on our critters here to determine how much more Winter we have left.

Good morning, Carson City, on this first day of February. Our area has been enjoying Spring-like weather and temperatures all week long. Today will be no different, so enjoy the pleasant conditions while they last.

A series of storms is forecast to move into our region Saturday, dropping temperatures as well as rain and snow. As the photo suggests, rain in the morning is a sailor's warning, so batten down those hatches.

Join us Friday for a night of improv comedy. It is a different show every time as the BAC Improv Troupe creates shows for you right on the spot (probably because we are too lazy to actually memorize anything.) Come and see what all the fun is about and even join in. $5 suggested donation at the door.

This weekend is shaping up to resemble a false Spring, with unseasonably warm temperatures forecast by Sunday. Saturday should see sunny skies and a high temperature near 50 degrees.

Just right for a little horsing around.

Wow, Carson City! Is it Friday already?! Indeed, we have reached the end of another work week.

Decided where to go to college yet? Filled out all the applications? Been accepted? Now what? As if that was not difficult enough, now comes the time to think about moving, what to take, what not to take, whether or not it is better to live in the dorms or get an apartment. And then there is the toughest question of all: refrigeration? College life is scary at first.

Good morning Carson City and welcome to your weekend. Weather is expected to be mild for most of this weekend, partly sunny with daytime high temperatures in the mid- to upper 40s.

Here is what's happening around Carson City on Saturday, Jan. 12:

Hello and good day Carson City. We are headed into the end of the work week, Friday, Jan. 11, 2019. We're looking at partly sunny skies ahead into the weekend, with a chance of rain or snow showers to round out Sunday. Stay tuned. Here's what's happening around Carson City today:

Gabriel Rutledge will be headlining the Carson Comedy Club this weekend, Jan. 11-12 inside the Carson Nugget located at 507 N Carson St. in Carson City.

Let's hear it for the first weekend of the new year, because it won't happen again for another 12 months.

The first weekend of 2019 also means the first Saturday of the month, which is the day of the Downtown Business Association Monthly Wine Walk in downtown Carson City, come rain, snow, wind or shine.

That's a good thing, too, because this weekend will likely have all of that.

Welcome to the first Friday of 2019 Carson City. We'll see mostly cloudy skies and a high near 50 ahead of a storm system moving into the area by Saturday. Rain and snow showers are possible on the valley floors.

The last week of 2018 is flying by and the year's final weekend is upon us.

Daytime temperatures should warm up into the 40s today and near 50 by Sunday, so get out and enjoy the bright winter sunshine and fresh, crisp December air.

Hello Carson City. The weekend approaches and we're still wondering how we went from Thanksgiving to Christmas so fast. We are coming into Friday, Dec. 28, 2018. Besides having to put on an extra layer of clothing and setting the thermostat a couple degrees warmer, conditions outside are what can be expected as we head into 2019: Cloudy to sunny with a continued chill in the air.

Open Mic Night is held at A to Zen Gift Shop on the Zen Den Stage. All talents, creative projects welcome. Come practice being on stage. There will be music, comedy, poetry, magic, and more. All ages and skill levels welcome.

Bid farewell to Autumn, because today is the first full day of Winter.

This is also the last weekend before Christmas Day, which means the last Santa Trains of the season at the Nevada Railroad Museum. Santa Claus also leaves his North Pole headquarters at the Carson Mall Sunday in preparation for his big night.

For all the darkness lovers out there, today is for you, because it's the Winter Solstice, the shortest day of the year. The almanac says sunrise on Friday morning is at 7:14 a.m. and sunset is at 4:39 p.m. Friday afternoon, giving the Carson City area just a little over nine hours of sunlight.
