Hey, Nevadans!
I’m back! I had a great time in Mexico City. I got to see family, enjoy good food, and notably, explore Teotihuacán and watch a lucha libre match! Not all on the same day, of course.
I’m glad to be back home with my fur babies, but I miss the trees that tower along the sidewalks and the city’s walkability.
Have you taken a vacation yet? Don’t forget to take care of yourself!

From Pahrump to Carson City, fall is often the best time of year to get outside and enjoy the beautiful weather across Nevada. Temperatures cool off ever so slightly, and a host of autumnal-themed events crop up around the state to provide a scenic backdrop for the picture-perfect day with your loved ones.
Do you have any traditions or events you’re looking forward to this fall?
Avoid the FOMO (fear of missing out) and get out there in the community, there’s lots to do!

The cyberattack that occurred on Aug. 24 is still under active state and federal investigation. And while some data was exfiltrated, investigators are determining the scope. Last week, Gov. Joe Lombardo said the cyberattack did not involve DMV databases and that there is no evidence driver’s license, vehicle registration, or personal details were stolen.
Lombardo emphasized that if investigators later confirm personal information was taken, the state will notify affected people and provide resources to help protect them.
The incident continues to affect some of the state’s technology systems, causing websites or phone lines to be slow or unavailable as the state recovers from the attack. But some agencies, like the DMV, are back up and running.

US water systems need $1 trillion in upgrades. Some Mountain West states are making progress: “In the West, states are dealing with shrinking reservoirs, worsening drought, and a lack of data to plan for the future. Many Western states use outdated methods to measure their water system needs according to an analysis by Pew Charitable Trusts, a nonpartisan research group. Some states don’t even have inventories of basic assets, like aging pipes, or where lead service lines still exist.” (KUNR)

NV lacks resources, funding to adequately address youth homelessness, statewide report finds: “The report showed there were 2,834 youth ages 12 to 24 who were identified in 2024 through the Homeless Management Information System, which tracks service interventions among unhoused people – 2,868 were identified the year before. There are only 430 beds in Nevada shelters dedicated specifically for the youth population, none of which are in the 15 rural counties.” (Nevada Current)
