I for one appreciate SBSO broadcasting lifting evacuation status just as much as them broadcasting the warnings and evac orders, its timely and a good way to keep people in the know, now that we cant listen to sheriff's directly via scanner. Fire radio traffic yeilds that info but has to be followed closely to get the whole picture...

Yes Trua, you ARE the only one.

Hi all, looking for someone who's good at drain cleaning with a snake...periodic problem drain with blockage a way down the line. I sold my snake and dont do that kind of work anymore...

Well this is good news! So glad the AO folks can get back home😊👏

I was mistaken. The location for the Red Cross supplies is actually at the fire station across the street before The Oaks. They have loads of boxes of non perishable foods and all sorts of extra goodies for anyone and they are very eager to give it away. Don't be shy. I'm not sure how long they'll be there today, but they said they'll be back from 10-2 tomorrow, too.

Thanks! Glad to be back home! And very thankful for all the emergency personnel.

Thanks for all the insight Cory, welcome home, again!

Also, they are giving away extra provisions up at The Oaks lodge parking lot. I think it was extra supplies donated to the firefighters. I think they have food boxes and looks like cases of water. Masks, gloves, trash bags, etc.

I talked to the guy at the road block. They said there is not currently an ETA for that to reopen.

I may have worded that confusingly. To word it differently, there are no road blocks or need to show residency to get as far as AO. Just past the store and restaurant area is where the road block is, where it is blocked for everyone.

That is correct, SCM. They aren't even checking for residents only. It's just a hard stop for everyone at the road block and everything the rest of the way up is clear.

Love that evacuation orders/warnings are being downgraded, but am I the only one who thinks it's a little unnecessary to use the emergency alert system to send an "all clear" type message? That alert tone is meant to trigger a sense of urgency, over usage may cause people to ignore it entirely when it matters.

Am I missing the estimates for this year's snow pool? Has Benny opened it yet?
