    With the recent “Pokemon Go” craze sweeping the nation, numerous reports are coming in from across the country of distracted pedestrians and drivers playing the game. As a public service announcement, we urge motorists to be on the lookout for inattentive pedestrians and erratic drivers.

    With the forecast heavy snow and drifting, Local 2045 would like to remind homeowners and renters alike to keep accessible furnace, hot water heater, and dryer vents free and clear of snow. Obstructed vents create a potential safety issue with regard to carbon monoxide poisoning in an enclosed structure. As a safety reminder, DO NOT climb onto a roof to clear vents!
