SOUND UP! A 100-year-old building in Portland is coming down — and demolition started with a bang. A controlled blast sent the building’s aging rooftop water tower crashing down in spectacular fashion. The structure was badly damaged by a recent fire, and crews are now beginning the process of dismantling it. Once demolition is complete, investigators will move in to determine what caused the fire. #Portland #Oregon #Demolition #WaterTower #ControlledDemolition #Fire #ViralVideo #News #CNN #NBCPalmSprings

Travel insurance: worth the extra cost? ✈️🌴 Many airlines and hotels offer travel insurance for an additional fee, but before you say yes, it’s important to know what you’re actually getting. From canceled flights to unexpected emergencies, travel insurance can offer protection—but not every policy covers the same things. So, is it worth the added expense?

Flock told our @maria_nvtv they would not be able to speak because they were “currently taking a break”. She also spoke with local police chief Andy Mills who insisted the A.I predictive technology previously proposed was different from the way Flock cameras are being used locally in Coachella Valley.

The countdown to the 2028 Summer Olympics is officially underway — and a familiar face from the Coachella Valley is helping prepare for the global spotlight. San Clemente will host Olympic surfing at Lower Trestles, one of Southern California’s most iconic surf breaks. Helping get the city ready is San Clemente City Manager Andy Hall, who previously served as Cathedral City’s city manager. The big challenge? Lower Trestles can accommodate about 2,000 Olympic spectators, while regular surfing events can draw 6,000 to 7,000 people. San Clemente is planning viewing parties and other community events so more people can experience the Olympic action. The world is coming to the waves of Southern California — and the Coachella Valley has a familiar connection to it all.
