Be prepared for severe storms this spring. Sign up for Alert Fairfield! It is another way to be informed of tornados in the area. Also, make sure you have a weather alert radio, or another way to get warned! goo.gl/CBrsCT
A system will approach from the west this evening bringing snow and ice for tonight and Wednesday. Travel impacts are expected. Slow down and leave extra stopping distance if taking to the roadways.
