Our reporting on today's winter weather didn't begin today or yesterday - it started ten months ago, when the City of Lexington assessed last season's weather response. Throughout the year, we've kept you informed about the city's updated snow plan, reporting even back when it was warm and sunny!

I've had a lot of local public radio stations having lived in six large US cities, and WUKY is far and away my fave (especially combo'ed with WEKU--it is extremely cool that we get both).
A donation to them is more than worth it.

Public radio is by and for your neighbors. Your news team at WUKY asks questions about the things you care about - because they're things we care about, too! Whether it's the new City Hall proposals, UK partnerships with big tech, or Lexington's winter weather plans, we're as curious as you are!

For the first time since 1988 the U.S. government is not officially commemorating World AIDS Day. So, I'm posting a few photos from a 2015 exhibition at the Tacoma Art Museum. Hard to pick just one. Here is an Altar Piece by Keith Haring, his last before his death. #WorldAIDSDay
