0315L-SATURDAY OUTLOOK FROM GARFIELD COUNTY EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT-11/12/22

PREPARED? Download our GARFIELD COUNTY EM app and you will be.

1- We are still in an EXTREME DROUGHT situation and now we are experiencing a killing freeze. Any foliage that didn’t die or go dormant a few weeks ago, will now, and conditions will get a bit worse. Use extreme caution if you plan on doing any controlled burning.

2- Weather conditions will continue to be cold and for the next several mornings, lows will be in the low to mid 20’s. I shouldn’t have to tell you what to wear, that is a no brainer. A reinforcing front will pull more cold air and a chance for a rain/snow mix on Monday morning so be prepared for that. We’ll see what happens there. DRIVERS, SLOW DOWN AND PAY ATTENTION!!

3- Overall, we’ll be ok, just cold so here is your forecast from the NWS/NORMAN;

Today-Sunny. Highs in the mid-40s. North winds 5 to 10 mph.

Tonight-Mostly clear. Cold with lows in the lower 20s. Southeast winds 5 to 10 mph.

HAVE A GOOD DAY.
