Today's riddle: What do you call cows dancing in the dark 🤔 (Answer below!)
• Maryland to spray for mosquitoes this weekend (baltimorefishbowl.com) — Laurel neighborhoods around Montgomery Street, Baltimore-Washington Boulevard, Nest Court, and First Baptist Lane will see mosquito-control truck spraying after 9 p.m. Sunday, with a rain date Monday. State agriculture officials will use an EPA-approved permethrin solution and urge residents to stay indoors during spraying and reduce standing water to cut mosquito-borne disease risks.
• Fluoride levels restored to water in Montgomery, Prince George's counties (dcnewsnow.com) — If you live in Laurel and get WSSC Water, fluoride levels in your drinking water have been restored to the standard 0.7 milligrams per liter after several months of reduced levels. The change affects 1.9 million customers across Montgomery and Prince George's counties and is meant to support better oral health while officials continue monitoring supply.
• 98 Rock's Amelia Looks Back As Her 30 Year Radio Career Nears Its End (dcrtv.com) — A longtime 98 Rock host is reflecting on her three-decade radio career as she prepares to sign off for good in December, and she traces her love of broadcasting back to growing up in Laurel. Her story highlights how local stations like 98 Rock and DC101 once inspired young listeners, and raises concerns about whether today's radio industry still offers those same opportunities.
