Exciting Happenings in West Columbia: Rainy Days and Holiday Cheer!

Hello, West Columbia! Are you ready to dive into some local news that’s both friendly and fun? Well, weather-wise, it looks like you might want to grab that umbrella because we’re expecting some off-and-on rain showers this afternoon. According to the latest forecasts, we could see a high of 81°F, with a 60% chance of rain lingering about. So, maybe hold off on that picnic in the park until later? And make sure to keep an eye out for patchy fog. As the night rolls in, prepare for a cooler evening with a steady low of 68°F and a full 100% chance of rain. Sounds cozy, doesn’t it?

Localized Flooding Alert!

Just a heads-up for everyone—be careful out there! With 1 to 2 inches of rain expected, localized flooding could be a possibility, so don’t let the weather rain on your parade. If you’re venturing out, remember to stay safe and keep your feet dry!

Exciting News from Carraway Park!

212 Hudson St..

And guess what? Santa’s Mailbox is back! Yes, you heard that right! Little ones can bring their letters to Santa or use the pre-made postcards available at the Santa Post Office from now until December 24. Isn’t that just magical? The best part? Santa is committed to replying to all letters received by December 16. Just don’t forget to include a return address to ensure a special reply arrives just in time for Christmas! Letters dropped after December 16 might miss Santa’s sleigh, but every letter with an address will still get a little surprise from the North Pole.

Join the Christmas Cheer at the Tree Lighting!

And here’s an extra special twist: Santa himself will personally choose two letters submitted by November 29 to be read by Mrs. Claus during the 20th Annual Christmas Tree Lighting at City Hall located at 200 N. 12th St. Mark your calendars for December 6! This is sure to be a night filled with twinkling lights, laughter, and the warm joy of the season. What a perfect way to gather as a community and kick off the holiday celebrations!

The City of West Columbia is thrilled to bring these traditions back and create lasting memories for our children and families. So don’t forget to help your little ones write their letters this week! We’re all looking forward to seeing the magic of Christmas unfold in our community.

Stay Tuned!

Remember to stay safe and dry out there today, West Columbia! As the holiday season approaches, keep those spirits high and get ready for all the upcoming festivities. Whether it’s the cozy vibes of a rainy day or the cheerful excitement of Santa’s Mailbox, there’s something special happening for everyone. Happy holidays, everyone!
