Heavy showers are expected to roll through Christopher today as temperatures climb to 90 degrees, so plan indoor activities or bring an umbrella if you head out. Carbondale wrapped up Fourth of July celebrations yesterday with fireworks and an orchestra performance, while Rend Lake hosted a science program featuring eagle ambassadors. If you're looking ahead, there's a free small business financing workshop coming to Carbondale on July 16, and Marion's Cultural and Civic Center has Puppy Pals Live and a Rush tribute band coming up soon.
