Craig’s List: 4 Things to Know – 8/22
Don't throw away those eclipse glasses. The next solar eclipse in our area is in April 2024.
1 - Lingering clouds will give way to a mostly sunny day today with dry, breezy conditions. Your forecast details from the National Weather Service are here.
2 - The Quad City Mallards open their 2017-18 season at the iWireless Center on October 13th and when they do they'll have a new PA announcer. I'll tell you who, plus get you updated on scores and more when we do That Sports Thing at about 7:40am.
3 - A new festival debuts in downtown Davenport this weekend. It's called Alternating Currents, and it has something for everyone. Details and more entertainment news when we do That Entertainment Thing at about 8:40am.
4 - I was surprised to see City and County Reboot beat Flying Our Colors as the voters choice for the new Iowa license plate. Did you vote? Do you like the new design? Comment on our story on Facebook.
Have a great (Taco or Wing) Tuesday.
- Craig
