How HVAC Contractors Can Guide Homeowners Beyond the Quick Fix
The residential HVAC market has seen a clear shift in recent years: more homeowners are choosing to repair rather than replace their systems. It’s an understandable reaction in a time when costs are top of mind, but it’s not always the most cost-effective decision in the long run. This means the technician's role has never been more critical—not just in fixing what’s broken, but in educating customers about the full picture of system health to help them make the best choice for their home.

Why has the Blizzard of 2026's snow melted so quickly off of the roads?
No two storms are ever quite the same, and the first two major snowstorms of 2026 in Delaware have had dramatically different impacts on Delaware's roads. January's storm that brought up to 10" of snow still had some snow piles on the side of roads when Sunday night's storm crushed Delaware with 5-20" of snow.

Snow still a possibility, coastal flooding, high winds expected, as nor'easter grazes Delaware this weekend
It still appears that the Delaware beaches could see at least a plowable snow from a nor'easter that will form off the Southeast coast Saturday night. WDEL Meteorologist John Conway said Sussex County will likely be on the very northwest corner of the precipitation shield of a storm that will work off the Carolinas, or perhaps Georgia, and then swing northeast.

Nor'easter seems likely for Southern Delaware this weekend, but will it snow?
A nor'easter is expected to form and race up the Atlantic Ocean this weekend, but questions remain whether it will bring more than wind to Delaware. A week after Wilmington's biggest winter storm since 2016, forecasters are tracking a storm which should form over the Southeast coast on Saturday, and then take some path either northeast, or more north. "This is one of these situations where there is going to be a big drop-off in snow totals over a short distance.
Weekend winter wallop looks more and more likely
A colossal winter storm is bearing down on Delaware and parts of surrounding states, with bitterly cold temperatures Saturday setting us up for heavy snow on Sunday. The forecast from the WDEL Weather Center still holds for a foot of snow to fall, perhaps more. A transition to sleet and perhaps freezing rain looks possible for around midday Sunday. After that, any snow and frozen stuff will stick around. Daily highs may not get out of the 20s for much of next week.
Winter Storm Watch issued for Delaware as forecasters sort out likely snow, sleet battle
Trying to pin down snowfall totals for Delaware may be more complicated than simply looking at surface temperatures during this weekend's storm. WDEL Meteorologist John Conway said the forecast remains on track for snow to overspread Delaware during the overnight hours on Saturday into Sunday morning.

Major winter storm still being projected for Delaware, but concerns rising about potential mixing
Most computer models continue to show a major winter storm for Delaware this weekend, but it might not be as snow-centric as first thought. Today's midday computer runs started to introduce a greater opportunity for warm air to be injected into the storm system, that is expected to approach from the southwest on Saturday evening and potentially go through Monday. Projected snowfall totals for this weekend, produced on January 21, 2026.

Inflation Is Up - Here’s How Home Service Businesses Can Stay Competitive
As of July, inflation rose 2.7% year over year, over and above the inflation rates of the past three years. Home service companies are feeling the impact. Costs for materials, labor, fuel, and financing are on the rise. Additionally, some of the inflation is driven by government-mandated refrigerant changes and efficiency upgrades, which are more in the 8% to 10% range or more over the past 36 months.

How to Choose the Right Business Model
Embarking on the entrepreneurial journey is an exhilarating step toward creating a legacy. However, the stakes are high — it's almost common knowledge that 90% of startups fail.

This makes selecting the right business model in 2024 more crucial than ever to ensure you're positioned correctly in the market.
Why Entrepreneurs Should Invest in Service, Not Just Sales
In today's competitive marketplace, it's not just what you sell — it's how you make people feel while buying it. More than ever, customers expect quality products in addition to a seamless and personalized experience.

Why can't the city's Water Department set up fees more like the Parks Department
This is a summary observation of the Columbia City Council meeting and public discussion during public hearings at recent meetings for the FY25 budget. The director of the Public Relations Department made a comprehensive presentation on the Amendment to Chapter 17 of the City Code as it relates to the Parks and Recreation Department fees. The department historically has chosen to make minor fee increases every two to five years instead of significant fee increases every six to 10 years.

Hard and Soft Skills: What HVAC and Plumbing Technicians Need to Know to be Successful
You can teach someone how to fix a water heater, but if they don’t make a customer feel comfortable in their own home, technicians will struggle to be successful in their career. Since technical ability is one of the greatest indicators of success in the plumbing or HVAC industry, soft skills may seem like an afterthought to some, however, they play a decisive role in the effectiveness of a technician's job and add value to the service they are providing.

Dynamic Posterior Instability Test: A New Test for Posterior Glenohumeral Instability
BACKGROUND: Recurrent posterior shoulder instability has become an increasingly recognized cause of shoulder disability, especially among athletes. The presentation can be vague and therefore its clinical diagnosis is often overlooked. Few diagnostic tests exist and these tests are difficult to perform in an anxious and apprehensive patient. Many also lack high specificity and do not effectively distinguish posterior labral tears from other shoulder pathologies.

For decades, Fannie Harden worked alongside her husband William to build the Forestview Lodge near Swan Lake into a successful business, carrying on alone after his death. When she passed away, the hotel went into decline and closed in 1955. That is the story of many Sullivan County hotels, and in myriad ways, the story of the Forestview Lodge is quite typical. One important difference, however, is that the Hardens were African Americans.
