0345L-TUESDAY OUTLOOK FROM GARFIELD COUNTY EMERGENCY MGMT-12/31/19

1- GARFIELD COUNTY EM. This is our notification/emergency app. Now is a good time to download it and see how it works before you actually need it. Remember, you’re NOT PREPARED without it!

2- Today is the last day of 2019. I have spoken about many subjects over the last 24 years and a few have come to realize that several of those things have come to pass in their lives. During this holiday season, I continue to see many folks texting while driving but the most alarming thing is you are doing it with CHILDREN IN YOUR VEHICLE!! I haven’t heard of any fatalities here in the county from folks doing this but it’s going to happen and then you’ll regret it. Put your phone down while driving. THERE IS NOTHING THAT IMPORTANT WHILE DRIVING THAT’S WORTH THE LIVES OF YOUR CHILDREN. Just because it hasn’t happened yet, doesn’t mean it won’t.

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

Tuesday- Sunny with highs in the upper 40s. West winds around 10 mph.

Tuesday Night-Clear with lows around 30. Light and variable winds becoming southwest around 10 mph after midnight.

HAVE A SAFE AND HAPPY NEW YEAR!

MIKE
