“Dear PoPville,
I live at 16th and R streets NW and I’m used to a lot of street noise, but recently (as in right now, 7:56pm on 4/27) I’m hearing what sounds like a loud outdoor concert. It’s all good, I know I live in a city and expect the noise. But I’m honestly curious as to where it is coming from and if it is a regular program.
Or is it from a school nearby, possibly having marching band practice or like rodeo practice or Nascar practice or a football game. It is super loud and sounds well attended. I can’t really make out what is being said or sung.
And before anyone says, just go walk outside and find out, I don’t want to. I am home after working a long day and I want to chill. I’m just curious if anyone else in the area hears it and knows what’s up. Noise complaints will not be filed.
I’ll add, I do think I heard this one other night this week too.”

We’re about a month out from summer. That means you’ve still got time for spring cleaning!
Lexi Grant, an operations manager at Well-Paid Maids, shared her go-to spring cleaning tips with WTOP News. Step one? Declutter. Get rid of items you don’t use, find space for items that need a home and organize those areas.
Then, it’s time to dust. Lexi starts with high-touch surface areas (think: refrigerator, dishwasher, counters, microwave). One area she sees often neglected is the bedroom — and it makes sense. Heavy furniture is difficult to move around, but it’s important to really get in there so dust doesn’t affect your sleep.
