Can you spot the holiday grease? Gravy, turkey drippings, butter and salad dressing all count! Let leftovers cool, then toss them in the trash. La salsa gravy, los jugos del pavo, la mantequilla y el aderezo contienen grasa. Deja enfriar los restos y tíralos a la basura.

¡Las inundaciones en el sótano cuestan caro! El inodoro no es un basurero. Las tuberías están diseñadas para las 3 P: pipí, popó y papel higiénico. Las toallitas y otros residuos pueden causar obstrucciones. ¡A la basura, no al inodoro!

Adopt a storm drain this fall! Blow leaves onto your lawn, not into the street. Keep nearby drains clear of leaves and debris to help rainwater flow and reduce localized flooding. A few minutes can make a difference. Every Drop Adds Up.

¡Adopte un desagüe pluvial este otoño! Lleve las hojas al césped, no a la calle. Mantenga los desagües cercanos libres de hojas y residuos para ayudar a evitar inundaciones. ¡Unos minutos hacen la diferencia! Cada Gota Cuenta.

With every crash, a first responder's top priority is to save lives and prevent more crashes from occurring. When they arrive on scene, responders need your help to make this possible. #MoveOver to allow emergency personnel to work safely and effectively. #CrashResponderSafteyWeek

Cooking is the leading cause of home fires. Today, practice staying in the kitchen whenever you are cooking. #FireSafety

A cold front brings chances for strong-severe storms this afternoon/evening, with lingering rain chances for Tues. Dry forecast Wed-Fri. Highs today in the 70s for most, back mainly in the 50s the rest of the week. #newx #kswx

Adopte un drenaje pluvial este otoño. Cuando rastrille, revise también la entrada cercana. Mantenga las hojas y otros desechos fuera para que el agua de lluvia pueda drenar correctamente. Unos minutos pueden marcar la diferencia.

Adopt a storm drain this fall. When you rake, check the nearby inlet, too. Keep leaves and debris out so rainwater can drain properly. A few minutes can make a difference.

Halloween Safety Tip: Cornstalks, crepe paper, and other decorations can catch fire easily. Keep decorations away from open flames and heat sources, including candles, light bulbs, and heaters.

This Halloween, keep the scares limited to costumes & movies. Preparing ahead can guarantee a frightfully fun night! Create an emergency plan, choose a place to meet if you get separated, & download the FEMA app to receive alerts: fema.gov/app. fema.gov/blog/halloween-dont…
