Good morning, this is your Santa Fe Local Frequency for Thursday, September 4th. As the city gets ready to slide into fiesta weekend, there is a buzz of excitement in the air and plenty for you to see and do today and in the days ahead.First up, if you or someone you know has been affected by recent flooding, the State of New Mexico has extended disaster food assistance for SNAP recipients living in the ten hardest-hit counties, including De Baca and Otero nearby.
