• Costal erosion, high tides close Metrolink through San Clemente (foxla.com) — Rail service is currently suspended between the Laguna Niguel/Mission Viejo station and Oceanside because high tides and coastal erosion have damaged tracks through San Clemente. Mission Viejo commuters who rely on Metrolink's coastal route should expect indefinite disruptions, monitor Metrolink and Amtrak Pacific Surfliner alerts, and consider alternate travel options while crews work to stabilize the shoreline.
• More than a smile – the changing landscape of orthodontic care (latimes.com) — A Mission Viejo orthodontic team at Remarkable Smiles warns that mail‑order aligners and AI‑driven shortcuts can miss serious dental problems that in‑person exams would catch. Using their local experience, they explain how costs, insurance limits, and weak regulations have left some patients with lasting damage, and why traditional, individualized orthodontic care still matters for long‑term health.
