Just a heads up: While the major May Day rally in #BostonMA tomorrow at Boston Common is more well known, there are smaller ones in the area. #ChelseaMA will be holding their own May Day tomorrow at 5PM ET at 63rd Sixth Street.

It's been a while since I looked at the #LAFire's Air Support. Look at all of them go. ##hughesfire

Adding the past pathing, you can see where the air support is being concentrated at. They are also using Encino Reservoir to refill their water supply. #CAfire

Hmm... took a look and it appears the area is served by Bus 34, 34E, and 35. Here are the future plans for the line that I am aware of.

Question: Is there a timeline to update these busses on the Transit Matters Dashboard as the 104/106 and 114/116/117 are all appearing to not completely be working at the moment?
