It’s Throwback Thursday, so here is a look back at Firefly , which at least for the moment, is no more.

Speaking of fireflies (OK, bad segue …), lanternflies are back in Delaware. Here’s what you need to know to protect your plants and trees from this invasive pest.
With Tropical Storm Debby in our rearview, we are now keeping an eye on Ernesto . We will keep you updated with the latest on this latest storm, which as write this is a Cat 1 Hurricane.
And now, more news …
