Good morning, Pasco.

A Pasco couple, the Boothe's, recalled memories of the Mount St. Helens eruption 45 years ago that changed their lives.

They explained how the disaster affected both their family and the community—serving as a personal reminder of that significant event.

BPA reported improved financial results with net revenues forecast at $210 million from higher power prices and better cost management - officials say this boost in cash reserves means they likely will not raise rates for power customers.

Pasco city officials are asking residents for input on a new Shoreline Master Program guide—one that seeks to balance protecting the environment with letting people access local shorelines and waterways.

The city will use the feedback to shape future guidelines for managing these areas.

Travel experts warn that if last year’s TSA numbers hold, families should plan early for a busy Memorial Day Weekend by booking flights and hotels ahead of time — they recommend off-peak travel times to avoid long waits at airports and on highways.
