As we honor and celebrate our nation’s veterans this Memorial Day, various organizations around the Puget Sound are hosting events to celebrate those who have served in the U.S. military.

Some parts of the U.S. could see triple-digit temperatures over the weekend, while severe storms threaten other areas, according to forecasters.

More than 130 national cemeteries will conduct Memorial Day events hosting a total of about 100,000 attendees across the nation, the Veterans Affairs Department announced Tuesday.
