0325L-TUESDAY OUTLOOK FROM GARFIELD COUNTY EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT-10/05/21

1- Sunshine, light winds, and fairly low humidity for today. If you can be outside and enjoy the weather, you sure won’t regret it. The weather should be like today through Saturday and then some changes may occur but until then, really nice warm weather. Enjoy it folks!

2- With the little bit of rainfall we have had, we are in a MODERATE DROUGHT area. As I continue to state, the ground in some areas may be wet but the foliage is dry so use extreme caution when utilizing anything related to fire. Controlled burning is ok but keep a close eye on things and be sure to plow a barrier around the field.

3- Here is your forecast from the NWS/NORMAN;

Tuesday-Sunny. Highs in the lower 80s. Light and variable winds.

Tuesday Night-Clear. Lows in the lower 50s. Light and variable winds.

A QUICK BRIEF: Things are happening around the world and communications can be lost for a while. When social media goes down, DON’T PANIC!! It might come back in a short time but again, it might not. You can get our information on our GARFIELD COUNTY EM app under GCEM BLOG or go to our website at www.gcem.org and the daily post will be right there on the front page. Keep in mind that venues fail or go down for a reason but don’t let that reason cause you panic. Rely on local radio stations for up to the minute news and remember we coordinate with them too.

STAY SAFE!
