Heavy rain is expected to move into Boone today, so grab an umbrella despite the clear skies now and the pleasant 82-degree high. App State has announced a new statewide transfer agreement to help community college students complete health sciences degrees more easily, and if you're looking for entertainment this week, Gladys Knight is performing at the Schaefer Center. The Highland Games will also be making their return to Grandfather Mountain July 9-12 if you're interested in getting ahead on summer plans.
