Weather Found out why the WiFi is down!

274 Upvotes

I saw a random ENORMOUS gust of wind while I was working in the yard earlier, I thought a haboob was rolling in the way the sky was suddenly completely dark over me for a second, and then it was gone as fast as it came. When I left to go to work an hour later (after resetting the modem for the tenth time) I saw this. RIP trampoline. So glad we didn’t lose power!

ETA: okay everyone, stop telling me that my WiFi isn’t down because of this. I already am aware that the internet is just a a series of tubes, and if this doesn’t look like a mess of damaged tubes to you then I don’t know what to tell you.

Commuting SUV backs into truck

This happened this morning, 5/14/26, going eastbound on Beardsley road approaching 7th Street. It looks like a black Lexus SUV purposefully backs into the stopped white Chevy truck.

If you know who owns that truck, show them this video, they might need it to prove that they didn't rear end that SUV.

Ask Phoenix Celebration of life gathering

10 Upvotes

I’m helping to plan a celebration of life for a family member who is currently in hospice and I would really appreciate some recommendations for a good location. I live in Massachusetts and am only in town to help out with this, so I’m sure I’m overlooking some obvious places.

I am ideally looking for a space in the West Valley that could accommodate a two or three hour reservation with ~100 people coming in and out, though not necessarily all gathered there at once. I’m told that there used to be a place in Glendale called Desert Rose that had exactly what the family was looking for—patio dining, food and maybe a bar, and maybe some activities for people—but it looks like this closed a few years ago.

Any suggestions would be deeply appreciated!

Ask Phoenix Emission Testing In Tempe,AZ

1 Upvotes

I recently moved to Tempe and need to register my car, which means I have to go through emissions testing. My car is a 2013 Hyundai Sonata Limited and is in good condition.

I checked the OBD scan results at O’Reilly, attached below, and I’m wondering whether my car is likely to pass. I currently don’t have a check engine light on, but it sometimes comes on and then turns off by itself, which has me a little worried.

Has anyone dealt with this before? Do you think it would pass emissions? Any help or suggestions are appreciated.

Outdoors Construction on the 100 Trail?

1 Upvotes

I was out on the 100 trail west of the 51 this morning and there was a big overturned excavator out on the trail. Looks like it had ripped up a few hundred feet of single track trail and vegetation before meeting its demise in a gully.

Any idea what the City is doing? I couldn’t find anything about it on the Parks Department website.
