Good morning, Longmont.
🎭 Culture
CBS Colorado's First Alert Chief Meteorologist Dave Aguilera will be inducted into the Silver Circle at the Heartland Emmy Awards this weekend.
The honor recognizes his 33 years at CBS and lasting media impact — a testament to his Colorado roots.
🏛️ Government
Colorado National Guard members are supporting fire crews and emergency managers by providing field and behind-the-scenes help as wildfires continue across the state (including areas near Longmont).
They work with law enforcement to coordinate ongoing response efforts.
On July 16, the U.S. House passed the Sunshine Protection Act, sending it to the Senate and potentially allowing Colorado to keep daylight saving time all year, which would end twice-yearly clock changes.
Local watchmakers & residents expressed mixed views as they adjusted their routines.
🏥 Health
Donor Alliance will host its annual Donor Dash 5K (honoring the impact of organ and tissue donation) to unite community members in support of awareness.
The event will bring local residents together to recognize life-saving contributions.
