A significant winter storm is expected to impact our area over the coming days. Forecasts indicate the potential for heavy snowfall, icy roads, and hazardous travel conditions. Your safety and well-being remain our top priority.
Please take the following precautions:
- Limit travel unless absolutely necessary; roads may become slick and unpredictable.
- Allow extra time if you must be on the road and keep an emergency kit in your vehicle (blanket, water, flashlight, phone charger).
- Dress warmly in layers and protect exposed skin when outdoors.
- Ensure you have essential supplies at home, including medications, food, and heating resources.
- Check on elderly neighbors, family members, and anyone who may need extra assistance.
- Stay informed by monitoring local weather alerts and official advisories.
While winter weather can be inconvenient—and downright stubborn at times—this storm is temporary. We have weathered many seasons together, and this one is no different. By taking smart precautions and looking out for one another, we will get through it safely.
Please do not hesitate to prioritize rest, caution, and common sense. The snow will pass, roads will clear, and warmer days are ahead.
Stay safe, stay warm, and take care of each other.
