Heat Alert! Storm Alert!
There is a chance of storms today, the temperature will be high (what a shock!) and many are still without power.
For those reasons, the Bethesda Library on Arlington Road will be opened as a cooling center (and as a library, of course: books, internet, etc.) from noon until 8 PM tonight.
You'll be a short walk from the barbecue on Bethesda Lane in front of Redwood between 12 and 6 PM, if you'd like a burger or hot dog.
New Power Outages
Last night's storm caused an additional 11,000 outages.
Old Power Outages
Kenwood (the neighborhood, not the club!) was without power as of 11:00 PM last night.
Power Restorations
Pepco made some progress in the hard-hit 20816 and 20817 zip codes. Residents near Fernwood and Greentree Roads reported having power by mid-evening last night.
Gas stations on River Road reopened, but 7-11 appeared to remain closed.
Power was restored for the first time in the Springfield neighborhood off River Road.
