Good Morning Quincy WA Daily Brief – Monday, March 9 2026

Speaker: [00:00:00] Good morning, Quincy. Today is Monday, March 9th, 2026, and if you're like me, you're feeling that time change yesterday, a little more this morning even than you did yesterday. That's okay. We're gonna get through it. This is your daily local update for Quincy George Winchester Crescent Bar Sunland Estates, and all of the 9 8 8 4 8.

If a managed to our community, we're talking about it. In the next few minutes, we'll cover today's weather, what's happening around town, school, sports and activities, school, city council, police, fire, church and community, local business news. Whether you're heading out to work, getting the kids out the door are just easing into your day.

We're here to help you stay connected to what's happening in our community. Grab your coffee, get ready for your day, and let's start with today's forecast. [00:01:00] It is definitely colder this morning. In fact, it's sitting right around 32, but it feels even colder than that. Uh, it's a significant temperature drop for the weekend, especially Such a beautiful day yesterday.

Sunny with a high near 46 today, but nowhere near yesterday's temperatures, winds from the west, 10 to 17 miles an hour with gusts as high as 25 like yesterday's. Exciting wind and dropping back down tonight, mostly clear with a low around 26. Yep, we're back. It is, well, it's the 9 8 8 4 8 springtime. What can I say?

The humidity is lower this morning, but give yourself some extra space just in case you got some windshield wet process this morning. I know it'll be hard to get your kids back in the jackets today after that glorious weather yesterday, but they'll absolutely need it this morning. So make sure they're dressed warm, especially if they're walking to school.

And [00:02:00] our Jack Sports Recap, our Jack soccer teams played this more weekend at their jamboree here in Quincy. It was three schools besides the Jacks, and it was a series of 20 minute games with a running clock, just nonstop go, go, go. It was kind of the kickoff to soccer season, uh, multiple teams from around the area.

Regular seasons starts this week, so look for Jacks updates later this week, as well as our baseball team was playing some scrimmage games yesterday, or, sorry, not yesterday, Saturday, uh, against each other. It was a busy weekend around here. If you're looking for a reason to celebrate today is national napping day.

In light of yesterday being daylight savings time, and I'm guessing if you're like me, you could use a nap today as well. If that's not enough. It's National Meatball Day, so. [00:03:00] If you're brave in the kitchen, you can make some meatballs today. Uh, I have not mastered that yet, but I'm sure I will get it sooner or later.

And it's awesome. National crab meat day. Uh, be careful about that. Living on the side of the mountains, that's not as readily available as it is over on the other side of the mountains. So be discerning about where you get your crab meat from today around Quincy. The senior center hosts several weekly events that are all are welcome to attend, and on Monday they have Coffee Hour at 10:00 AM they got Line Nancy at 1:00 PM and they host Bridge on Mondays at two 15.

Congratulations to our Quincy High School Drama Department on successfully wrapping up Footloose. Musical concluded last weekend and the show was absolutely fantastic. Uh, I saw it twice and it was an amazing show. Both times, great work to our Quincy Drama Department. You guys crushed it with this one and it's still fundraising season.

The Quincy Band is having the UN fundraiser for 2026 where you're invited to make any size donation to support our great band department. The Quincy Booster Club is support of Quincy High School theaters presenting the egg My yard fundraiser. Easter is April 5th this year, so it's just around the corner.[00:12:00] 

Get ready for the fun and fundraiser because this one takes a lot of prep and work away from your busy schedule. That's right. Imagine a stress-free Easter weekend because it's done for you. Imagine just being able to wake up to your yard full of Easter eggs for your kids to hunt. Why didn't someone think of this sooner?

This amazing feat is accomplished by submitting your pre-order. For eggs options of 25, 50, 75, or a hundred candy filled eggs. Tell 'em whether you'd like the eggs simply dropped off at your residence or scattered in your front yard, either the Friday or Saturday night before Easter orders must be submitted by March 15th, so you're running out of time.

Sign up for this one. Payment made using cash or square. For more information in full price list, contact Jackrabbit Theater patrons@gmail.com. Y'all ready for this[00:13:00]
