Hey Neighbors!
It’s been more temperate this last week after those freezing lows. The warm up is welcome but not for long, expect the chill to return over the weekend. The wind and dry leaves make for risky conditions and those proved to be true with the multiple brush fires reported over the weekend. There is a burn ban through November 1st.
There was a brush fire reported off of Gardnersville Road on Tuesday that was spotted, contained, and controlled by local Josh Schroeder before authorities arrived. A great example of the strength of our community!
The “leaf peeping” colors have now past peak for our area according to the Fall Foliage Report by iloveny! Until next year!
Remember that fall leaves and damp roads can be just as dangerous as icy roads so please use caution this Fall.
