Weather forecast:
1. In Pasadena, a 600-goat herd is taking a bite out of fire fuel (laist.com) — Hundreds of goats are now grazing Pasadena’s Arroyo Seco slopes to reduce wildfire fuel and kick off Earth Day, with work continuing for six to eight weeks. Backed by the city and One Arroyo Foundation, the $85,000 pilot aims to boost fire resilience after the Eaton Fire, and residents can follow the herd’s movements and even see friendlier goats at Saturday’s Rose Bowl Earth Day event.
2. You'll Never Want To Visit These 8 Creepy Places In California After Dark (familydestinationsguide.com) — Pasadena’s Colorado Street Bridge, long nicknamed “Suicide Bridge,” is spotlighted as one of California’s creepiest after-dark destinations, with eerie reports of ghostly figures and unexplained sounds above the Arroyo Seco. The article also tours seven other haunted spots around the state, but the Pasadena segment stands out with its detailed history, renovated safety barriers, and lingering stories that still unsettle nighttime walkers and photographers.
3. Pasadena, Long Beach Public Health Departments Announce NO Indoor Mask Mandates (californiaglobe.com) — Pasadena’s Public Health Department has decided not to bring back a general indoor mask mandate, citing declining local case rates and stable hospitalizations, even as LA County weighs a broader requirement. Alongside Long Beach, Pasadena is using its independent health authority to diverge from county pressure, creating a patchwork of masking rules that could affect where and how residents mask up around the region.
4. Kennedy Assassin Stabbed in California Prison (californiaglobe.com) — The man who once lived and studied in Pasadena before assassinating Robert F. Kennedy has been stabbed and seriously wounded in a San Diego–area prison. The piece revisits Sirhan Sirhan’s time in Pasadena and sharply criticizes a recent juvenile-justice reform law that could affect other high-profile offenders.
