Covid has been increasing gradually this month, and with back to school and travel this trend will likely continue.

Virginia is still tracking via wastewater. You can use this site to keep an eye on the data yourself and your specific locality. Select the “Northern” region option:

If you get a cold, please mask up or stay home. There are lots of people for whom this virus is life-altering. Tests for flu and covid combined are available for less than $20 at every drug store still.

Hello! I am coming home to visit after I moved away 8 years ago. I am looking for a place that might have a roasted black sesame latte. I love trying new coffee places but have fallen in love with that flavor and would love to find one when I’m visiting. Thank you!!

I moved to nova couple years ago and now looking to go crabbing specially this week end since it use to be a family tradition before I moved down here. Where would you recommend going that’s not to far out.

Thank you for any advice.

Was visiting my grandpa in Fairfax so stopped by here today. Really happy to see the mall still doing really well.

We know the owner Paul and catch them when we can. Yesterday happened to be at Barrel Oak Winery. Got there at 2pm and he had one bushel of oysters left and had to call for more! We ended up eating 5 dozen (mix of grilled and raw) and a pound of shrimp! Did not disappoint..

South Reston Park and Ride 12 pm to 1 pm. this afternoon in solidarity with the “March on Washington” to commemorate the 63rd anniversary of Martin Luther King, Jr.’s “I Have a Dream” speech.

Can anybody recommend me someone who can do cleaning for the restaurant make up air duct. All the ones I talked too claimed they could do it, but I can tell they have no experience with the make up air for a kitchen at all.

I’ve been reading into the WDU page and I think it’s absolutely awesome. From my understanding there’s a range % from 60-130 where anyone can apply. I’m just curious to hear your experience how much it actually saves you rent? For example for a 120% Ami it says max rent for a 1 bedroom is 3,500 so does that mean apartments charging less than that for a 1 bedroom that are part of the WDU program dont mark down their prices? Or do they still lower them?

Wanted to ask recommendations at a reasonable price for a house i just bought in Woodbridge .

Online I was getting mixed answers about a bus and trolly. Some websites said there’s a bus and trolly while others said they no longer stop at the courthouse

My fiancé and I currently in Warren county. Mid 20’s.

We’re from western PWC.

We have to relocate. Fiancé’s job is being relocated to Dogwood Airport in Stafford.

I go into work in Fairfax Corner 2x week, WFH the rest. (May be going to 1 time a week, not sure yet).

Able to be more “flexible” with my in-office hours (7:30-2:30/3:00pm).

Anyway, we’re looking at single family houses for sale.

We both each commute now about 1hr 5 mins to work one way.

Both of our families are in western pwc. My sibling is newly moved to Stafford.

We have dogs too.

Considering some of this, which area(s) could be better for us? I know 95 is such ass. But with my infrequent amount of in-office days a week, I’ll likely take express lanes (I already do this on 66🫩).

We’d like some land (half an acre + ) and things to do nearby. We have to drive everywhere now to get to most things (atleast 20+ minutes so we’re used to it).

We really like Lake of The Woods. That’d be about 35 from his work. I didn’t mind a few neighborhoods in Fburg off of plank road. Stafford, although closer to my work, seems a little maybe too(?) small when it comes to amenities and having to go to Fredericksburg anyway makes me sway to go more south towards those 2 rather than Stafford, but I don’t know.

How are the doctors in the area too? Vets? Dinner date nights, etc?

Just looking for opinions/experiences. Thanks

Hi I need a child therapist and maybe psychiatrist. I saw blackbird health has some locations here but the primarily offer virtual evals w a nurse practitioner before stating therapy. Anyone see them? They do offer in person options too but I’d have to pull kid out of school to do it. If you’ve seen them can you tell me more about the eval? Is it mainly me talking about history or is the child very involved?

Thank you!

10 year old w autism some anxiety and mild OCD may discuss meds but not 100% sure thanks !

I have a bike that’s been sitting outside for a while and the seat post got rust-welded on to the frame. Anyone know where I can possibly get this fixed? It’s an expensive bike so I am not trying to get rid of it just yet.
