🌱 Downtown Reno Veterans Day Parade + Car Crash Causes Major Delays

Good morning, everybody! It's me, Helen Eckhard, your host of the Reno Daily — back in your inbox with all the most important things happening in town these days.

But first, today's weather:

Partly sunny and cold. High: 45 Low: 26.

Here are the top three stories in Reno today:

1. Today marks the annual Veterans Day parade in downtown Reno. The parade will begin on the Virginia Street Bridge and end at the intersection of 5th Street and Virginia Street. The parade will proceed north on Virginia Street from Liberty Street. The parade begins at 11:30 a.m. Residents are encouraged to come out and see the parade as it winds through downtown Reno.

2. A car crash off South McCarran caused lane closures and considerable traffic delays last night. On Thursday evening, a car slammed into the back of an RTC bus near Equity Avenue and Capital Boulevard. At least three feet of the bus was ripped off during the collision. Police advised travelers to seek alternate routes. (KRNV)
3. On the hunt for a new house nearby, but getting tired of seeing the same old listings again and again? Here are the five most recent houses to hit the market in and around the Reno area. Happy house hunting! (Reno Patch)
