You can tell temperatures are getting cooler as the weekend events list gets longer and longer.
This weekend I’m headed to Game 4 of the WNBA Finals to cheer on the Phoenix Mercury. I’m also headed to an Oktoberfest event, but I’m a little unsure how that will go—there’s a lot of rain in the forecast over the next few days due to Hurricane Priscilla. Hopefully not enough to rain on our parade!
If you’re out and about this weekend, be aware of potential flooding. Here are some tips for driving in a downpour.
