Great reminder to check your tires!🚘✅
#SummerSafety
Tread carefully! In the scorching summer months, the high heat and hot roadways contribute to the breakdown of treads and more chances for tire failure. Stay prepared this summer by getting your tires inspected and, if needed, replaced.

In case you didn't know already, it is HOT! Temps are in the low 90s, but thankfully we have mostly blue skies to allow for a perfect pool day! Make sure to use plenty of sunscreen and drink a lot of water. Clouds clear out this evening and lows reach the mid 70s. /LG

Another reminder from our friends at
@Readygov
. Have multiple ways to move air and reduce the temperature in your home. Fans create a sense of comfort, but may not be enough to reduce body temperature or prevent heat-related illnesses.

Animals can die of heatstroke within 15 minutes, and cracking the car windows doesn’t help. NEVER leave your pets in parked vehicles.
