Showers to Sunshine Capturing Mother Nature in the Yakima Valley
I am no weather expert, I will leave that to Mike McCabe but I will say I LOVE checking out the radar feature on Accuweather, I find it to be accurate! Badabum!
A few days ago the reports said we were in for some showers, dropping the temps into the lower 60 s after enjoying ALMOST 90-degree heat for days last week so I checked the forecast, and thankfully my warning to hold off on washing your car, rang true.
We had a touch of wind but more clouds and rain showers all across the Yakima Valley. I love this place because being nestled in between mountain ranges sometimes the actual storm clouds can t seem to break through to pour over Yakima but everyone else and their mother is getting hit. It makes for some pretty incredible photos. If you were able to catch some over the past few days feel free to share them via our app

109th Rep. Troy Waymaster
Representative Troy Waymaster, one of Kansas top fiscal leaders, has been appointed to serve as co-chair of a binational, nonpartisan committee of Midwestern legislators that will explore a wide range of issues related to state fiscal conditions and the development and management of state budgets.
New this year, the Midwestern Legislative Conference (MLC) Fiscal Affairs Committee will provide members with a forum for the exchange of information, ideas and strategies related to current revenue trends, spending needs and the critical fiscal and budgetary challenges facing states and provinces across the Midwest.
Councilman Gary Price said he supported what Chapman has done, yet he voted to accept his resignation. I don t think it is in the best interest of the city, residents or him to continue, Price said.
McCabe said he had lost confidence in Chapman. I think it sounds like we are at the point where it is time to part ways, McCabe said.
Councilman Paul Perry said that Chapman told him within the past month or so that he would agree to a separation agreement if it was the appropriate way to resolve the conflicts between City Council and him.
Sponsored feature: Getting to grips with ESG reporting
Mike McCabe of MUFG Investor Services.
The move towards environmental, social and governance (ESG) investing is accelerating fast as regulators take actions – most notably in Europe with the European Union’s Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulation (SFDR).
The regulation, which came into force on March 10, is seen as a gamechanger for tackling ESG reporting and transparency and will likely have a knock-on effect on other regulatory regimes. It applies not only to EU financial market participants but also to those outside Europe that market their products to EU investors.
Mike McCabe, Chief Commercial Officer at MUFG Investor Services, part of Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group, says the SFDR is the first real regulatory step to address the lack of transparency in ESG investing, and has generated a lot of interest outside of Europe.
