BETHLEHEM, Pa., — Today is National Drink Wine Day, and no, we're not making that up. This one is for those of you who've had a rough week and need a little something something. Go on, take the edge off. Make it a healthy pour. You deserve it.

1. Good news! No more rain. The National Weather Service says today will be sunny, though cold. Expect a high of 43 degrees and a low of 28 degrees.

2. Stephanie Sigafoos has a cool story on a piece of local history, right here in Easton. Make sure you check it out.

3. U.S. Rep. Susan Wild has come to bat for Sen. John Fetterman, who recently sought help for his struggle with clinical depression. "When public figures speak out about this," she said, "it enables you to serve constituents better." Micaela Hood has the scoop.

4. In the Lehigh Valley, Christina Russo is working hard to make sure we all have a seat at the table. And frankly, what's better than a crowded table?

5. DeSalus University just got a reason (or 200,000) to smile. Phil Gianficaro has a beautifully reported story on two education grants and what it means for young people who want to teach.

Happy Saturday!
