Winter Weather Preparedness Week 2024. Do you know the difference between a Winter Storm Watch, Winter Weather Advisory, and Winter Storm Warning? A Winter Storm Watch means it's time to get prepared and put your safety kit in the car. A Winter Weather Advisory means you should be aware that travel difficulties are expected and be cautious. A Winter Storm Warning means dangerous winter weather and considerable travel problems are expected, it's time to take action and change travel plans.

Please use caution and stay away from barricaded areas down at the west end of the Riverfront in front of the boat docks. The ground near the riverbank is very saturated from all the rain and has begun sloughing away in some locations. These areas have been barricaded off but caution should be used all along the top of the bank.
The West Trail is still open and safe to use.

The Federal Water Pollution Control Act of 1948 was the first major law to address water pollution. However, it was the Cuyahoga River fire in 1969 that brought national attention to water pollution issues and jumpstarted the establishment of the EPA in 1970 and ultimately the inception of the Clean Water Act in 1972.
