Volunteers Clean Ten Tons Along Canal and River
About 70 area volunteers organized by George Lewis and Lana Brust hauled roughly 10 tons of trash from the C&O Canal towpath and Potomac River, collecting refrigerators tires and five 200 pound metal grease boxes. They cited dump fee increases as a motive and park officials say gates have been added to deter future dumping.

Warm spell continues into week with highs in 70s and 80s
Forecasters from the National Weather Service predict a warm stretch as a high pressure area off the Atlantic Coast drifts warm air from the southwest. Temperatures rose from the 50s to the mid 70s last week, with today expected in the lower 80s and overnight in the upper 50s to low 60s. A pair of weak cold fronts may lower highs into the 70s midweek, but no major cold snap is anticipated beyond December.
