🌱 Flood Watch + Art Opening + Healdsburg Halloween Events Begin

Hey, everybody! Simone here with your weekend edition of the Healdsburg Daily. Apologies for the spottiness of the newsletter over the past week — I've been taking some much-needed time off. And today's newsletter is an abbreviated one, with local weather and events only (of which there are many!). I'll catch you up on all the local news you need to know next week.

Thanks for sticking with me. Here we go...

First, your weekend weather:

• Saturday: Cool, with rain this afternoon. High: 59 Low: 55.
• Sunday: Heavy wind and rain. High: 61 Low: 51.
• Monday: More rain, but less intense. High: 61 Low: 46.

Weather officials have issued a flash flood watch for the Healdsburg region as an "atmospheric river" moves through today and tomorrow. Heavy rainfall tonight through Sunday evening may lead to flash flooding — especially in areas burned by wildfires over the past couple years — as well as "debris flow" and "urban and small stream flooding" in town, officials say. Careful out there! (Healdsburg Patch & Healdsburg Patch)
