CLEVELAND (WJW) – FOX 8 News is taking a moment to remember our friend Pat Brady, who was the first traffic reporter in SkyFOX. She passed away after a yearslong battle with breast cancer.
Pat flew the skies over Cleveland for more than a decade, both on FOX 8 News in the Morning and in the afternoon shows.

Hi everyone so exactly as it says in the title I reach CLE through the Amtrak at 4am. My building manager will only be in the building at 9am and is understandably reluctant to keep the keys anywhere else.

What do I do from 4am to 9am? I will have two suitcases with me. I am a woman and will be alone so I am a little worried about the safety aspect as well.

Added context: The building I am meeting them at is an apartment building downtown where I will be staying, so would want to be around that area

Hey, Mark at the Scene here.

Working on a story about Cleveland Public Power's supposed strategic master plan but want to include some actual customers in my reportage.

A few questions. How frequent have outages been this year? Are they worse than previous years? What costs have you incurred because of these blackouts? Spoiled food? Generators? What else?

Feel free to vent here or shoot me a DM if you wanna chat. Thanks.

I'm a lecturer at CWRU who's seeking a local journalist to come talk to my class this fall semester (hopefully early September)! I've reached out to a few people with connections and tried to contact people at cleveland.com but have come up empty so far. Please feel free to reach out if you're a local journalist or can put me in touch with one.

I constantly see people say 'Waaah if we brought Blockbusters back there would be world peace!' Well guess what, Cleveland still has a surviving family owned rental spot you can go to to relive the past!

I grew up going there, ive actually been going to Corenos since the 90's when it was at the old spot further down lorain but havent been as an adult. They're super nice and are obviously in it for the love of the game or they would have closed years ago.

It was so cool to go into a video store, I asked them for a membership and they said I need to come back with ID, a card to pay with and a recent bill for proof of address. Ill be going back soon because im excited to take my kids and let them pick out a movie like I did as a little man.

Plus they have an adult section which I was never old enough to go into so that cracked me up to check out. I had a huge grin the entire time and im sure my face was bright red haha.

Seriously guys, its the last of the Mohicans for our city. Show them some love and keep the traditions we want for our own kids so badly alive! If we want nice things, we have to go out and get them!

I do a lot of creative and nerdy stuff like cosplay, game development, etc. and I think it would be a great way to meet friends who do the same while also working on stuff together and helping each other but I have no idea where to start or how to go about that. I tried looking for groups, especially a cosplay group but couldn't find much.

I go to conventions but I find it difficult to make friends while at a con cuz there's so much going on, plus it would be fun to go to a con with fellow cosplay friends instead of alone. Also I think it is time to go back to making friends IRL instead of just doom scrolling and looking at people who have no idea you exist.

If anyone has any suggestions on how to do go about this let me know!

Something affordable and helpful. I really want to learn.

Anyone else getting an ungodly amount of spam calls that are labeled as from rocket mortgage lately? I’ve gotten 28 so far this week

I've narrowed down to moving to either downtown or little italy. I will be taking the HealthLine to work at late night and not bringing a car. With my budget ($700-$1000) I am looking at either a studio or sharing a 2b2b with a roommate.

Here's what I gathered from each. Please correct me if I'm wrong:

Downtown:

+: closest to HealthLine, modern apartments with AC and other amenities, city living, sport events, younger people

-: panhandlers and homeless, might be less safe at night?, wind tunnel, no groceries and retail

Little Italy:

+: cheaper rent overall, many students and working professionals in the area, restaurants and more groceries on this side of town, safer area, somewhat close to the HealthLine

-: more rundown apartments (lacking a/c heating etc), some racism towards POC

Which is better? My priorities are safety and being in close proximity to the HealthLine.

I've had this post written for a while but never posted it, but with all the recent ones looking for friends, I'm inspired to do it now.

I (37 F) am looking for people (18+) to play Candela Obscura with. It will be my first time GMing, but I've been really eager to try it out.

For those who don't know, Candela Obscura is a horror-themed ttrpg about an organization that investigates and contains supernatural threats. It takes place in a city called Newfaire in a world that is similar to our own during the late 1800s to early 1900s.

Candela's system is easy to learn and the game tends to be roleplay-heavy, so it's a great opportunity for people to try out playing a ttrpg for the first time, especially if you're into LARP or even acting/theater/improv.

This game has monsters, magic mixed with technology, and darker themes. Dressing for the time period is encouraged.

If you think you might be interested, you can download the quick start guide for free. It goes over how to play and some of the basic lore:

Or you can watch it being played (by professional actors) here:

I was thinking of scheduling a time at Tabletop or a similar place. If I'm able to get enough people, we can set up a time/place to do a Session 0 to talk about your preferences, create your characters, and go over rules and lore.

I realize it's not a very popular game to play, but I want to at least try to find some people who are interested. I'm working on trying new things, so I was maybe hoping to see if there are others who want to try something new with me.

My boyfriend and I just moved here about three weeks ago, and while I’ve had three interviews, they’ve all either denied me or ghosted me. I’ve submitted countless applications to no avail. I can’t even really explore the city because I’m broke. Is anyone actually hiring right now? I live in Lakewood near Edgewater. I don’t drive, so I’d be taking the bus. Preferably retail but im willing to branch out.

Hey all,

I’m looking for an outdoor 400m track that’s definitely open to the public this Friday in the early afternoon.

A friend needs to complete a fitness test, and I’ll be administering it, so we need a track where we can do sprint repeats without worrying about getting interrupted.

I’m willing to drive anywhere from roughly:

West: Westlake
East: Beachwood
South: Hudson
North: Downtown Cleveland

The biggest thing is that I need to know with certainty that:

1- The track will actually be open on a Friday afternoon (not “sometimes it’s unlocked”).

2-The public is allowed to use it, so we won’t be asked to leave in the middle of the test.

If there aren’t any reliable outdoor options, I’d also appreciate recommendations for indoor tracks that offer day passes.

Hi! I’m trying Reddit to see if there is any place in Cle or Lakewood to make new friends (preferably girlfriends). Would love to grow my circle and meet some like minded people and so on. Any recs would be great!

For reference, I’m 27 and would love to meet people my age or around it!

Thanks!

Hey! So I've been watching the new Squatters show on Netflix and now I'm terrified. Does anyone know the laws here for squatters? If I leave on a few week vacation can someone just break in, change the locks and live in my home?

I'm obviously not too worried, never even had a package stolen, but still man...... could this happen?

Hi, I’m a local Cleveland photographer and I have a client who’s looking to do a shoot in a sort of abandoned church type setting.

All the information I’ve googled about churches in the area is either outdated or doesn’t really explain if they’re easily accessible / safe (as far as an abandoned property can be safe) and I can’t just go driving around the city checking all the potential places for locked doors.

Does anyone with any urbex knowledge or any more adventurous photographers know if anything? If you have to DM me too that’s fine - we will definitely be respectful of the space and just want to use the vibes for a shoot.

hello all! been a cleveland sports fan my whole life and i actually moved very close to the city (lakewood) and it’s a 10 minute drive to progressive field, huntington field, and the rocket arena. what’s the best way to go about buying tickets? i’m assuming buying in person would be cheaper? and are tickets usually cheaper right before the game as well? i’ve usually always bought tickets from seatgeek/stubhub but if im close enough to buy them in person and avoid fees and possibly have them be even cheaper, i’d rather do that.

Does anyone know the story behind this place? It used to have a handwritten sign saying it was a weed dispensary. I wasn’t able to find anything on Google.

Looking to get an RO tankless undersink unit installed. The only real PITA part is drilling the hole needed. I talked to a plumber that was going to charge me $1000. I am just seeing if anyone has anyone they went with. Otherwise ill have someone drill a hole and ill do the rest. Thanks!
