Some photos from Sheriff Oberkrom's trip below:

We were told that the Sheriff got to pick the color of their patrol cars when they were elected.

It was told that the Sheriff could not decide on the color of his patrol cars, so his wife picked this for him!

Rain Chances Through Monday Evening

If you haven't done your lawn fertilizer yet, here comes your prime opportunity. Rain will begin tonight and will last through Monday morning/afternoon, leaving behind a quarter to three quarters of an inch of rain.

Rain then returns to the area midweek, and will persist through the end of the week. This late-week round of rain could leave behind 1 to 2 inches. Hopefully this can put a dent in the ongoing drought.
