E (3:58 PM) TA: The eiruv has been checked and repaired and is up for both Yom Kippur and for Shabbat He'ezinu.

I never remember year-to-year, and last year was Shabbat, anyway, so it was a moot question...what's the halacha about carrying on Yom Kippur? I know it's like Shabbat in some halachot and not like yom tov.

We've got an eiruv, but with the wind and rain we're having, I'm a bit nervous.

Can anyone remind me? Thanks!

Other issues: there's construction that has included taking down a wire. The eruv has paid to have it put back up before Shabbat each week, but that doesn't work mid-week, with active construction going on. At least it meant that they sent out an email well in advance, to give people time to figure out what they're going to do.

Ah. OK.

At least you had some warning, though. That's a good thing, indeed.
