A child psychologist says grandparents are more important than ever as youth mental health challenges continue to rise. He argues that children need supportive relationships, meaningful conversations, and a sense of purpose—not just pressure to achieve.

4 things to know about the weather: Less Humid Conditions for Today Hot and Humid Sunday Showers & Storms Likely Tomorrow Evening Some of the Sunday Storms will Approach Strong to Severe Levels After an evening of severe storms that ended with double rainbows visible in much of D.C. and Northern Virginia, your Saturday starts with a blissful break from the humidity. It’s still hot, but thankfully less so than it was during the workweek. Friday’s extreme heat wasn’t just down to the feels-like temperatures, either: Yesterday’s 100°F high broke the high temperature record of 95 at DCA, set back in 2017. This was also the first 100°F+ reading at DCA since Aug. 24, 2024. The same front that brought Friday evening’s severe storms also pulled some cooler temperatures into the D.C. region, leaving Saturday morning temperatures somewhere in the 65-75 range. Afternoon highs will get close to 90°, but with lower humidity values
A new test provides a much more complete picture of DNA than current standard diagnostics and leads to a diagnosis more often.

For only the third time since the start of March, the weekend is rain-free. If you count the overnight on Sunday, however, we will technically not be, thanks to leftover storms and rain that move in late. For purely planning purposes, we’re good to go for any outdoor events both days — including if you’re heading to our first local World Cup match at Boston Stadium, or any watch parties, on Saturday. The dew points have dropped, so the heavy, hanging air has lifted. We’re still seeing hot temperatures, with highs both today and tomorrow reaching the low 90s. This is an ideal beach weekend, too. Tides are high early in the day (lots of beach in the afternoon), and winds will mostly be coming from land. Speaking of wind, the gusts get a little strong on Sunday afternoon ahead of a vigorous weather system pushing through Sunday night. There’s some hope that we get some decent rain from this system. Guidance shows up to half an i
Scientists have uncovered a surprising new genetic cause of a rare movement disorder after analyzing nearly 3,000 patients with conditions affecting coordination and muscle control.
