We hope you fared well overnight with that freeze warning that we had. Our thermometer said temperatures reached 32 degrees overnight, and that freeze warning should expire around 10 a.m. this morning. Our high today should be around 59 degrees.
And there's some road construction that is going to begin May 27th in the Kimball and Cheyenne County areas. Work will begin on I-80 weather permitting on the 27th on Interstate 80 from mile marker 22 to mile marker 47.
A three vehicle accident occurred yesterday around 16th Street and Highway 26 in Mitchell, Nebraska. An individual involved in the accident wrote in the comments that if any of my friends see this, we're fine. Home safe and sound. Yes, it would be right at the north end of our street. That was from Julie Kimsey-Lane. Glad to know that she's okay.
Late last night, mile marker 73, Highway 87 on the Larrabee Creek Bridge. Airbag deployment. Two female occupants complaining of chest pain after a car versus deer accident. Rushville Sheriff's Department responded, along with the Fire Department and the Nebraska State Patrol. That was around 10.53 p.m.
Please be aware of your surroundings as we get closer to the summer. With the dry conditions, snakes are moving and pose a potential threat, especially for those living in the country. According to a longtime Skinner follower, a baby rattlesnake was found in her mom's basement utility room. She walked past him five times before seeing him. He was coiled but not old enough to rattle a warning. The location of this particular critter was on Sugar Factory Road in Scotts Bluff County, but they could literally be anywhere in western Nebraska or eastern Wyoming as we get closer to the summer. Please be aware of your surroundings.
