The updated forecast for the Napa River calls for major flooding later tonight, just shy of the all-time record for the city of Napa. If this holds the river would exceed the 97' flood that basically cut off transpo in Napa Valley, prior to current flood control measures. #cawx

It’s been 1 week since 9 of us were laid off. 3 reporters remain on strike with us today. We’re determined to see this through and it’s made our message so much stronger knowing we’ve had your support. If you can, please donate to our fund — even if it’s $1. Every bit helps. ✊
Happy Friday! We are all so very grateful for the support and solidarity from our community and all over the country. ✊ We’re in it to win it, so we’ve stretched our relief fund goal to keep our laid off workers in this fight. Please give what you can: https://t.co/HCQkAibXcZ

Have any #freelancers had issues with @AvidXchange customer service? The company hasn't responded to my request for help changing the bank where my payments are deposited, and it's been more than a month of me trying. @kaitarford #freelance
