July 9, 2024

July 9th is the 191st day of the year. There are 175 days remaining until the end of the year.

We could be in for a very wet next couple of days.

Environment Canada has issued a special weather statement for all of southwestern Ontario, with the potential of heavy rainfall beginning Tuesday evening and lasting into Thursday.

According to the National Hurricane Center in Miami, the heavy rainfall in the region is a result of the remains of Hurricane Beryl.

It’s movie day at the Chatham-Kent Public Library.

At 2 pm you can stop by the Chatham branch to see Dungeons and Dragons starring Chris Pine, Michelle Rodriguez, and Regé-Jean Page.

Walmart Canada is introducing sensory-friendly hours in all of its stores across the country.

The goal is to create a more inclusive shopping experience for everyone and make shopping at the stores accessible to customers who may experience sensory overload by providing a less stimulating environment.

All 403 Walmart stores in Canada will offer sensory-friendly hours from store opening until 10 a.m. every Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. During these designated hours, there will be minimal sounds, with no music or radio advertisements and announcements/paging paused except for emergencies. In addition, only static, low-sensory images will be used on TV walls.

It’ll be a doubleheader weekend for the Chatham-Kent Barnstormers at Fergie Jenkins Field.

On Saturday, the Barnstormers will makeup their rainout from June 29th when the Hamilton Cardinals visit for a doubleheader consisting of two 7-innings games. The doubleheader will be single admission and the first game starts at 4:05 p.m.

The team will also take on the Welland Jackfish at home on Sunday at 1:35 pm.

CKMORNINGS will go In The Dugout with Barnstormers’ owner Dom Dinelle at 8:40 a.m. this morning.

Netflix has officially started getting rid of its cheapest ad-free plan in Canada.

Earlier this year, the streaming company alerted Canadian users that the Basic plan would be removed.

At that time, Netflix said the process would occur on a rolling basis depending on a person’s billing cycle, with members being notified of dates and deadlines over email or on the service itself.

Now, many users have said they’ve started getting notifications telling them to choose a different plan option in order to continue watching.

Canadian users impacted by the change have the option to subscribe to Netflix’s other three monthly subscription options.
