Lasers, floods & library drama β Friday's wild πͺοΈ
β
Good morning, Cuyahoga County. Cleveland Clinic just made Ohio surgical history with the state's first robotic nipple-sparing mastectomy β a genuinely remarkable milestone that puts this county on a very short list of places in the country doing this kind of cutting-edge work. Meanwhile, the skies weren't exactly cooperating yesterday, as flash-flood warnings swept through Cleveland Heights, Euclid, Lyndhurst, and South Euclid. Keep the umbrella handy.
Closer to home, library workers are inching toward a potential strike, so it's worth knowing what services would still be available if a walkout happens. On the national front, the U.S. military is now using lasers to down cartel drones β yes, really β and fresh local real estate listings are tucked inside if you're in browsing mode today.
