New Years

This has been a very hard year for all of us in Carson City, and the world in general. I think we can all agree we're happy to see this one pass by, and are looking forward to welcoming in the New Year. Especially with the knowledge that vaccines are right on the horizon for the public, we only have a little while left before things can return to normal (hopefully).

A cold front is expected to bring light snow showers and wind beginning late Monday night that may impact the Tuesday morning commute, according to the National Weather Service.

Happy Wednesday Carson City and say hello to our Nevada Humane Society’s Pet of the Week: Slade!

Heading into last day of 2019, we're looking at partly sunny skies with a high around 50 and low around 30. Activities around the capital city region are lined up through the day and evening. Enjoy and celebrate as we prepare to toast a welcome to 2020. Also do consider a designated driver, cab ride, Lyft or Uber to be on the safe side for your ride home if out celebrating. Happy New Year!

As we head into the final Monday of 2019, we're looking at a slight chance of light snow in the morning as a weak weather system brushes the region. Events around the Carson City area include a driver's education class offered through Western Nevada College Continuing Education, a luncheon featuring Patricia Ackerman, a Democratic primary candidate for Nevada's 2nd Congressional District, art activities and more.
