We are already receiving reports of ice beginning to accumulate on elevated surfaces in the Hill Country and Austin Metro. We could begin to see issues on overpasses/bridges soon. Tomorrow will be worse, please consider planning to stay home!

Wearing a mask doesn’t just protect you, it protects others. When you return to work or school tomorrow, please continuing wearing a well-fitted mask. Your high-risk and Immuno compromised colleagues and students will thank you. #keepiton #choosesafety

⚠️Avoid outdoor cooking. ⚠️ Do NOT throw cigarettes out of a moving vehicle. Properly dispose of cigarettes butts. ⚠️ Don’t park a hot car or other machinery in dry grass. ⚠️ Beware of sparks. Sparks or embers can blow into leaves or grass, ignite a fire, and quickly spread.
Travis County is under a burn ban due to very high wildfire risks today. Have a wonderful weekend and take extra steps to keep our community safe.
