Trash weeks, where mill-odor complaints actually go, the zero-fare buses, what's open at Fort Worden, historic-district basics, and more — each answer checked against its official source.
The festival calendar in one place — farmers markets, Centrum's summer festivals, the Wooden Boat Festival (September 11–13), the Film Festival and the Kinetic Race, every date verified on its source.
The town's water travels 30 miles from the Quilcene rivers through a 1928 pipeline, so this page reads the Olympic snow stations against their published medians and the Big Quilcene gauge below the city's intake — published measurements, updated daily, never forecasts.
How to check the Hood Canal Bridge and the Coupeville ferry before you drive: the live WSDOT pages, how reservations actually release, what closes the bridge, and the dates already on the calendar.
Official NOAA predictions from the Port Townsend station by the ferry landing — today's highs and lows and the week ahead, pinned to the town page.
A Victorian seaport of 10,580 at the end of one bridge and one ferry, in the Olympic rain shadow. Six tools to start: tide times for the waterfront, a bridge-and-ferry board, a water and snowpack page, the events calendar, common questions, and who to call.
The Is Something Burning? component gained a second data source: the National Interagency Fire Center's WFIGS incident map, which covers the whole United States and distinguishes wildfires from prescribed burns. California towns keep CAL FIRE's feed; Taos is the first town on the national one.
Tappable numbers for the town, the county, Taos Pueblo's tourism office, the Village of Taos Ski Valley, central dispatch, the hospital and the Blue Bus — every one read off the agency's own site the day this shipped.
Getting around without a car (the fare-free Blue Bus, and MyBlue at a dollar a ride), which of the four governments handles what, short-term rental basics, fire restrictions, acequias, and where to turn on a hard night.
Hours, admission and the Pueblo's own visiting rules, summarized from taospueblo.com — including the feast-day ban on all recording devices and the late-winter closure. Taos Pueblo is a sovereign nation; its site is the authority on all of it.
The free town lots, the paid kiosk lots and their rates, and the locals' annual permit — read from the town's parking page, which currently lists a $100-per-year two-plate permit for the Loretto and Couse lots.
Today's air quality at the plaza in plain language, updated hourly — with notes on smoke season, spring dust, and the town-versus-ski-valley weather split.
Active wildfires and prescribed burns near Taos, from the National Interagency Fire Center's incident map, updated every few minutes. Prescribed burns are listed separately — a planned burn, not a wildfire — and the page always points at the county's emergency alerts first.
Six tools to start, built from two days of research and checked against the agencies' own pages: live wildfire status, today's air, downtown parking, visiting Taos Pueblo, common questions, and who to call.
A resident asked for market prices so herders don't trek for days only to be lowballed. The new price board carries NDMA's latest per-market figures — in February a two-year goat averaged Ksh 8,000 at Isiolo town but Ksh 4,500 at Oldonyiro and Merti — plus terms of trade in plain words, the county drought phase, and a read-aloud section for the town's two radio stations. Also live: a rain outlook for the long- and short-rains seasons, common questions, and who to call with only officially verified numbers.
Nobody here can look up whether the lake boats are running — so the new pages do the honest version: a dated status board for the Ilala and the island boats, a wind-and-rain read over the open water to Likoma (no wave forecast exists for Lake Malawi, and the page says so), WFP market prices for the boma and nearby markets, a rain-season tracker, common questions, and who to call with every number's provenance stated. The requested crowd-updated ferry tracker is recorded as an idea waiting on a trusted way to verify reports.
Radio stations first, because warnings travel by radio here: Kasese Guide Radio 100.5 FM and Messiah Radio 97.5 FM. Then verified emergency numbers (112/999 and the toll-free fire line), the municipal council, the relocated hospital and the Uganda Wildlife Authority. Numbers we could not verify are listed as websites instead.
Why the taps dry up, where to go now Kilembe Mines Hospital has moved into town, where the Kilembe mine deal and Hima Cement ownership stand, the markets, the Mpondwe border and the equator landmark — answered plainly, with sources.
Flood preparedness as Kasese lives it: how warnings actually travel, what the district advised as the 2026 rains began, where people shelter, what to do about documents, and the honest state of the desilting and gabion works — each answer dated and sourced.
Floods here arrive from upstream, often under a calm town sky. This page reads a weather model at three points down the Nyamwamba's path — high Rwenzori slopes, Kilembe valley, Kasese town — and says in plain words how much rain fell in the last two days and what is expected next. It is not a flood warning, and it says so on every view: the warnings that count come by radio, from UWA spotters and district authorities. A 'For the radio' section gives presenters sentences they can read on air.
Kasese sits on the equator between the Rwenzori mountains and Queen Elizabeth National Park, and its defining fact is the River Nyamwamba, which flash-floods off the high slopes most years. The town starts with four tools built around what residents told reporters matters: upstream rain, flood preparedness, everyday questions, and who to call.
The national 117 health emergency line, verified against the Ministry of Health, plus the island's key offices. Where no phone number could be verified, the page says where to go and who to ask instead of guessing.
Where the rainy season stands — the last 30 days against the 30-year average and the week ahead — with what the rain means for the road to Yargoi and the crossing.
Both boat routes, the daily pattern, fares with honest dates on them, the state of the Yargoi jetty, what the rainy season does to the trip, and how to cross as safely as possible.
A plain-language read of wind and waves on the Yargoi crossing for today and tomorrow, keyed to the usual morning and afternoon boats. It describes the water using published sea-state scales — it never declares a crossing safe; that call belongs to the people at the wharf and the Maritime Administration.
A vehicle-free island town on Sherbro Island, reachable only by boat — and the boat is the whole story. Bonthe goes live with four tools built around that reality: a live read of the crossing, the trip explained, the rainy season tracked, and who to call.
Ten plain answers: the water situation, roads and the rainy season, Opuwo as the last supply stop, visiting Himba communities respectfully, where to stay, languages, and how to reach town services.
Emergencies, the district hospital, NamWater, the council and local radio — listing only numbers that could be verified against a live source, and saying where to go in person when one could not.
The last 30 days against the long-term average and the week ahead, with the local season calendar — and plain notes on what rain means for herds, Kaokoland roads, and why a wet month does not mean the taps run.
A dated public record of the water repairs and upgrades, the new boreholes and wellfield plan, the Ouranda relocation compensation, and the housing programs — what was promised and what has been independently reported, side by side.
A directory of community-run ways to arrange a village visit — the Himba-run Kaoko Information Centre, the Ovahimba Living Museum, and an independent Himba guide — with traveler-reported prices, verified contacts, and the norms that make a visit fair: go with a community guide, bring groceries not cash, ask before photographing.
The capital of Kunene and the gateway to Kaokoland joins with five tools: community-run ways to visit Himba villages, a public record of the water fixes and other promises residents are waiting on, a rain outlook, verified contacts, and plain answers to common questions.
Britannia, Westboro, Mooney's Bay and Petrie Island in one place: parking (only Britannia's lot is free), washrooms, food, the dogs bylaw and this summer's lifeguard hours — plus a plain explanation of why there are no daily water-quality advisories anymore and how to judge the water after rain.
A keyboard user tabbing through any page can now always see where they are: every button on the site — voting, picking a month, filtering events, choosing a town — shows a clear blue outline when reached with the keyboard. We also darkened the smallest text across the site (dates, hints, fee details) so it reads comfortably on more screens and in more light. Nothing moved; everything just got a little easier to use.
Bakersfield's summer question, answered at a glance: the new page reads the hourly weather forecast and the hourly air-quality model together and names the day's easier windows — today as an hour-by-hour strip, the next two days summarized. Hours are banded only on published scales: the National Weather Service heat-index categories, applied to the modelled feels-like temperature, and the US EPA air-quality index. Each hour takes the harder of the two constraints, and the strip says which one. A day with no comfortable window says so plainly and names the least harsh stretch instead of pretending. The limits are on the page too: these are modelled, area-wide estimates from Open-Meteo (CC BY 4.0), not street measurements; heat lands differently person to person, so the page says easier or harder, never "safe"; and the official channels — the NWS Hanford forecast, AirNow, and the Valley Air District — are linked for the readings that count.
A resident asked for a way to put in an address and see routes to the nearest playgrounds, with a bit of information about each one. That's now live: type your postcode and you get the five nearest playgrounds — how far away, a rough walking time, and a short note on what's there — plus a link that opens directions in your map app. Walking is the default, with cycling and driving a tap away, just as the suggestion asked. Your postcode is used once to find what's near and is never stored — the same rule as our other address tools. The directions link doesn't carry it either; your map app routes from wherever you are. The list is a verified starter set: 18 playgrounds checked against Oxford City Council's park pages this week, from Cutteslowe Park down to Blackbird Leys, with locations from OpenStreetMap. The council runs 87 play areas across the city, so some smaller greens aren't on the map yet. If your local one is missing — or we've described something wrong — the report link at the bottom of the tool reaches us.
Town pages can now be in Spanish: headings, forms, footers, badges and tool labels all have Spanish versions, and dates render the Spanish way. Punta Cana (Verón–Punta Cana) is the first town to use it — its pages and tools are written in Spanish from day one, because that's what the people who live there read. English and French towns are unchanged.
El primer pueblo en español de la plataforma arranca con cuatro herramientas: la temporada de huracanes con los ciclones activos del Atlántico en vivo, el año mes a mes con sargazo, precios y a qué playa ir, las preguntas que más se hacen aquí (luz, agua, cupos, hospitales, guaguas) y un directorio de a quién llamar con cada número verificado en su página oficial.
A fire check that reads CAL FIRE's incident list and says plainly whether anything is burning near the valley; an events page that keeps the farmers markets, summer series and dated events in one place with sources; a plain-language record of where the Chiquita Canyon landfill situation stands; and an hourly air quality picture. Requested by a resident who named the gap — events news scattered across six calendars and two Instagram accounts.
Wheatley is a village of about 4,300 people in South Oxfordshire, five miles east of Oxford — a quarter of its residents are over 65, and its bus network changed twice in eighteen months, so we started with the things people actually look up. Three tools to begin with: - **Where's the bus?** shows live positions for the 400, N400, 46, 49, 275 and the summer WP1 — how far away each bus is in plain words ("about 2 miles away on the Oxford side, heading this way"), with scheduled frequencies and full timetable links. Live data comes from the Department for Transport's Bus Open Data Service. - **Common questions** answers the recurring ones: which week the green and black bins go out, what's happening on the old Brookes campus, how to register at Morland House, the windmill's open Sundays, and how to get the Wheatley Newsletter. - **Who to call** untangles the three councils — bins and planning to the district, potholes and schools to the county, allotments and open spaces to the parish — plus health, police and the Good Neighbour Scheme, with hours and tappable numbers. Every fact was checked against an official page on 12 June 2026.
The bus answer now reflects that Magdalen Street reopened on 9 March 2026 after the Anglia Square closures (we previously said the stops were suspended with no return date), and the market answer now says the revamp consultation closed in January with a decision expected in June 2026, rather than describing the consultation as still open.
Anglia Square's rebuild, the bus network reshuffles, the market revamp decision due this month, Carrow Works changing hands, the 2028 move to a single Greater Norwich council, and this summer's drought watch — each with its current status and the dates that are actually published. Every card was checked against official pages on 12 June 2026.
A configuration gap meant the addresses we handed to search engines and link previews pointed at a development URL instead of town.tools — so sharing a town or tool page on WhatsApp or Facebook showed no preview, and our sitemap led nowhere. Both are fixed, and every page now declares its one true address. We also put a polite speed limit on the town search box so automated traffic can't overwhelm the free OpenStreetMap geocoder it relies on.
The board went live yesterday, but the code that loads its data never reached the site, so the page showed a placeholder instead of prices for about a day. That is fixed: it now shows the World Food Programme's latest monthly survey for all eleven markets, and how prices have usually moved through the year.
Type an address and see its zone on FEMA's current flood map, explained in plain words — including why so much of Westminster sits in the shaded "500-year" zone. Results come live from FEMA and the Census Bureau geocoder; addresses are never saved. Every result links the FEMA Map Service Center for the authoritative copy.
The capital of the Vietnamese diaspora joins with four tools: a FEMA flood-zone checker for the city behind the East Garden Grove–Wintersburg Channel, a who-handles-what guide to its famously split-up services, a parking and timing guide for Phước Lộc Thọ and the Bolsa corridor, and plain answers to common questions — from Measure Y to the chợ đêm season.
Dana Point has no tide station of its own, so the tool carries NOAA's official predictions for San Clemente, about six miles down the same stretch of coast, and says so on the page. Between the published highs and lows it estimates the current state of the tide and labels that estimate as one.
A tide table, a guide to all five beaches, a tracker for the $600 million harbor rebuild, a who-to-call directory for the six governments that share the town, and a surf check for Doheny, Salt Creek and Strands. Every fact was read off an official page this week, and each tool says plainly what it can't tell you — starting with Doheny's water quality, which you should check at ocbeachinfo.com before swimming.
Nueve notas de investigación sobre el distrito de Verón–Punta Cana: el panorama del censo de 2022, la estacionalidad del sargazo y los huracanes, los costos de alojamiento, las carencias cívicas (agua, escuelas, transporte), y lo que dicen los residentes y expatriados en medios y foros locales. Esta investigación guiará las primeras herramientas.
Ten research notes on the village: demographics, the A40-dependent geography, civic services (bins, buses, schools), what residents say in forums and reviews, and the 447-home campus redevelopment starting in 2026. This research will guide the first tools.
