Good morning, Appleton.

Gregory Juedes, charged with killing his father last year in Appleton, has asked the court for a mental health evaluation and a change of plea to not guilty by reason of mental disease or defect—his hearing is set for April 2.

Local mechanics say that a proposed 25% tariff on imported auto parts may raise repair costs and reduce parts availability—customers could face delays in getting repairs done.

Auto repair shops will likely adjust their inventories and pricing as the tariff takes effect.

Fox Valley utility companies are preparing for potential power outages during a storm expected over the weekend—crews will be on standby to restore power and monitor conditions like freezing rain, ice, and snow.

They advise residents to avoid downed power lines and keep essential supplies ready in case outages last.
