S00000, let’s talk about January… Winter is about to show itself in a nasty way… Regardless of how much snow or ice we see it’s going to be a really, really COLD month…
Please take this time and make sure you have alternative heating sources such as wood, kerosene, propane, extra gas for your generator. Check to make sure you have extra batteries for flashlight. If roads are bad due to weather conditions can you pick up your monthly medications early?! If you have outside animals make sure you have all you need to keep them warm during the night, we are going to be in the low teens if not single digits for an extended period of time..
As always I will pass along any weather information I can to keep the public informed much as possible. I just wanted to take this time and make sure everyone is PREPARED for a very cold spell that is going to set in soon.

Lawrence County Emergency Management Director
