Five Things You Need to Know Today: Aug. 25

Meet some new friends at the PTO Ice Cream Social today.

  1. Who's ready for Hurricane Irene? We put up a Facebook poll yesterday and a few jokesters added some funny options. Go vote and tell us how you're preparing (if you are at all). This simulation from the National Weather Service estimates that if Irene does reach us, it would probably be sometime on Sunday.
  2. Despite Irene, the weather today should be mostly just fine—some showers in the morning but partly sunny after about 11 a.m. or so.
  3. The PTO holds a today at 2 p.m. at Field School. It will be held outside unless it rains, in which case it will be inside the school itself. We're sending a photographer to snap some photos, so check back on Friday to see if your mug made it onto the site.
  4. The library holds at 6 p.m. Tonight's feature is "Princess Mononoke."
  5. What are your plans for the last weekend before school starts? (Gulp!) Let us know in the comments.
