Wind child advisory continues through Saturday night

The dangerous freeze continues to be top news for one more night before things begin to get more bearable. We have a challenge tonight, Saturday, January 20, 2024, as it is predicted to drop from below freezing to -5 degrees below.

During the daytime hours, even though we still had to operate in below freezing temperatures, the bright sunshine meant we could get outside as needed to keep up with chores.

Sunday it will be warmer, sunny, with a high near 28, so no excuse not to go to church.

Stay safe in the changing winter weather.

Little League games cancelled for Sunday Jan 21

From Daniel Hedges

After conferring with school officials, games are canceled for Little League Sunday January 21, 2024. I still hope and plan on Monday night with the rescheduled pictures. I will NOT know anything until I check with school officials' midday Monday. I go with what they say. I will have an updated schedule at some point this week with makeup games. I was waiting on the high school schedule to get finalized and seeing what happens Monday. I apologize for this week. We have had weather, and I was seriously ill last weekend with Sunday being questionable anyhow. Thanks.
