  • Flagstaff Braces for Historic Winter Storm, Community Events Abound
    Good morning, this is your Flagstaff Local Frequency for Thursday, January 22nd.
    We're tracking a potentially historic winter storm that's expected to impact our region significantly in the coming days. According to weather forecasters, this massive system will bring heavy snow across more than 35 states, with impacts beginning Friday and continuing into early next week. Here in Flagstaff and the surrounding high country, we're looking at some substantial accumulations. Higher elevations near Flagstaff could see a foot or more of snow, with some areas potentially reaching up to two feet. Lower elevations in Santa Fe are expected to see around eight inches, so our neighbors to the south will definitely feel the effects of this system too. The storm is expected to stretch over two thousand miles from the Southern Plains all the way to the Mid-Atlantic, so this is truly a significant weather event unfolding.
    For those of you planning outdoor activities this weekend, you'll want to keep a close eye on those forecasts. Roads could become treacherous, so it's a good time to stock up on essentials and make sure your vehicle is winter-ready. The National Weather Service will be providing updates throughout the week, so stay tuned to local weather reports for the latest timing and accumulation estimates.
    On the community front, there's plenty happening around Flagstaff today and this week. If you're looking for evening activities, there's a domestic violence support group meeting at four o'clock this afternoon in the Flagstaff area. The local community is also buzzing with upcoming cultural events. We've got some great live music options coming up, including Andy Frasco and the U.N. performing on January 29th. For those interested in arts and crafts, there's a paint your pet night coming up on January 31st, and a beeswax candle making Valentine's workshop on February 8th. The Flagstaff community calendar is really packed with activities for folks looking to get out and connect with neighbors.
    Before this winter storm arrives, now's a great time to catch up with friends and family or attend some of these community events. Bundle up, stay safe on the roads when the snow starts falling, and we'll be keeping you updated on all the weather developments.

  • Flagstaff Healthcare Expands, Live Music, Films, and More Local Updates
    Good morning, this is your Flagstaff Local Frequency for Wednesday, January 21st.
    We're starting today with some exciting healthcare news for our community. Sage Memorial Hospital in Ganado just reopened its surgical services department this morning after nearly two decades. The first procedures happened just this morning with colonoscopies and endoscopies. This is a huge deal for the area because residents have been traveling all the way to Flagstaff and Phoenix for these procedures, and our neighbors say they couldn't even get appointments in Flagstaff because they're completely booked. By late February or March, the hospital will add labor and delivery services including cesarean sections, and then move into laparoscopic surgeries like gallbladder removals. Emergency surgeries are expected within the year. Hospital leadership calls this a phased approach, what they're calling their crawl, walk, run strategy, and they're partnering with Creighton University Medical Center to support more advanced surgeries once everything is fully up and running.
    Here in Flagstaff itself, there's plenty happening to keep you entertained today. If you're into live music, head over to the Flagstaff Mall at half past eleven for the Traditional Music Jam that runs until one o'clock. They're featuring bluegrass, fiddles, and mandolins for all you music lovers out there.
    For our film enthusiasts, the Sedona International Film Festival is wrapping up several movies today. You can catch the critically acclaimed National Theatre of London production called The Fifth Step at three thirty. It stars Jack Lowden and Martin Freeman and tells the story of two men in a twelve step program. There's also The Choral, a beautiful film about a Yorkshire choir during World War One, also showing at four o'clock. Both theaters are in West Sedona.
    Looking ahead, we have some big developments coming to Flagstaff. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints announced that a new temple will be built on ten and a half acres at the corner of Butler Avenue and South Fourth Street. It's designed as a single story structure and will serve the growing population of nearly four hundred forty five thousand Latter-day Saints across Arizona.
    Tonight at five thirty, Mother Road Brewery is hosting an evening with attorney Rose Winkeler from Flagstaff Law Group if you're interested in any legal topics.
    And if you're looking for something a bit later, Arizona Snowbowl is hosting Trivia Night at Basecamp starting at six o'clock this evening.
