Hey, neighbors! It's me again, Sean Peek, your host of the Spokane Daily.

Cold with periods of sun. High: 37 Low: 19.


Here are the top three stories today in Spokane:

  1. Crews with the Spokane Fire Department responded to a fire in the 700 block of West Rockwell Avenue to discover a recreational vehicle engulfed in flames. The crews extinguished the blaze and found a man dead inside the vehicle's living space. The Fire Department is working with the Spokane Police Major Crimes department to investigate the cause of the fire. (Press Release Desk)
  2. The Spokane Fire Department responded to the Spokane River after several calls were placed regarding a floating adult body. The water rescue team recovered the body after deploying powerboats, kayaks, and low-angle rescue equipment. The Spokane County Medical examiner is working with the body and will release more information at a later date. (Press Release Desk)
  3. Phoebe Bridgers will play at the Pavilion at Riverfront on August 18. Bridgers is a singer-songwriter from the Los Angeles area. No other shows have been announced for the summer concert series at the Pavilion but there is still plenty of time for the series to add more performances. Tickets will go on sale Mar. 11.
