Last update: 8 hours ago

Nebraska Broadband Breakthrough: Vistabeam says it completed what it calls the nation’s first live BEAD household connection near Ogallala, delivering 800+ Mbps download and 200+ Mbps upload, showing fixed wireless can speed parts of the rollout. Public Health Spotlight: The hantavirus cruise scare keeps churning—France’s Pasteur Institute says the Andes virus from a French passenger matches known strains and shows no signs of a more dangerous form, while officials stress monitoring and low risk. Local Tech & Education Wins: Fort Hays State students won National Academy of Television Arts & Sciences Heartland awards for a live sports broadcast, and Nebraska-area graduation and scholarship items keep rolling in. Community & Health Careers: Regional West volunteers awarded $33,500 in scholarships to students pursuing healthcare careers across WNCC, UNMC, and UNL. Weather & Farming Reality Check: Frost-date and “middle class” explainers dominated the lighter reads, while ag coverage points to fast wheat maturity and drought pressure across the Plains.
