Good morning, Catonsville! Like many of you, the Patch team is taking some time off to celebrate Memorial Day, so you won't see a newsletter in your inbox on Monday morning. We will be back on Tuesday with your next update, but in the meantime, here's what's happening around town this holiday weekend.

First, today's weather:

A couple of thunderstorms. High: 76 Low: 57.

Here are the top three stories today in Catonsville:
