Hi, Julie. First of all, I want to say I appreciate what you're doing here. Visibility is so important for "invisible diseases" like mental disorders.

I don't live in Michigan, but what advice would you give for someone who wants to get help, but can't afford to, even with insurance coverage. I'm currently unemployed, but have benefits through my spouse. I'm unemployed because of health issues, including mental, and now we can't afford for me to get help. How do I break the cycle?

Thanks for reading this, and for helping people you've never met. You're a life saver.

I recently moved to the West Virginia Eastern Panhandle, which I think means the edge of your regular viewing area. Are your forecasts likely to be accurate for me, or should I be looking at other resources? Do I need to be worried about things like nor'easters? What can I expect to be different about the weather from where I grew up in west central Ohio?

Thanks from a new viewer!

With music programs around the USA being cut off entirely due to the pandemic, (such as Dayton, Ohio, who laid off their music, arts and PE staff in the same board meeting where they approved sports to go on almost unchecked) or severely limited (such as parts of West Virginia who have outlawed all after school activities, including concerts and rehearsals, but again, not sports) what do you think teachers, parents, and students can do to advocate for music's safe return to our communities?
