• Take Loudoun County's Invasive Plant Species Knowledge Survey (patch.com) — Ashburn and other Loudoun County residents are being asked to share what they know about invasive plants in a new county survey open through Nov. 27. The results will guide local outreach, connect residents with resources, and complement programs like master gardener site visits and native tree exchanges aimed at replacing invasive species on area properties.
• NFL looks for some help from Supreme Court (altoonamirror.com) — From Ashburn, Washington Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels is set to return for Sunday's NFC East matchup, though top receivers Terry McLaurin and Stefon Diggs are questionable with hamstring injuries. The piece also notes the NFL's push for the Supreme Court to clarify who regulates prediction markets, which heavily feature wagers tied to league games.
• 'This is the crunch' – EXA builds again as Atlantic capacity runs short (rcrwireless.com) — Ashburn's data centers are highlighted as a key launch point for internet traffic headed to Europe as a major network operator races to add new transatlantic capacity. EXA Infrastructure says surging AI and financial-services demand is straining existing cables, and its new Meridian system will help move massive volumes of data from hubs like Ashburn to cities across Europe.
