News scrapers live in the news directory. You can follow the San Francisco scraper as an example.

Napa County

  1. Has a “news flash” RSS feed with some coronavirus-related items. We could filter it by key terms.

  2. Has a page of “situation updates”, but they’re just text blurbs, not individual items with URLs we could link to. They’re also mainly just daily counts, so I’m not sure how well it really fits the “news” category anyway.

Update: the RSS feeds appear to cover only the current month, which is kind of problematic near the beginning of the month. All the county news feeds were full of things yesterday and basically empty today.
