**** We should be sunny but very cool today. High today at 38 with light winds. Clear and chilly tonight with a low of 21.  We could see some isolated snow showers Wednesday as we warm up to a high of 46. The warmup will continue Thursday and Friday, with highs in the mid to upper 50s. Here is the local seven-day forecast.

**** The City of Green River Water Division began its annual flushing of fire hydrants yesterday. City officials say this is a standard procedure to maintain a healthy drinking water system. The annual event takes place in the spring and summer.  Some residents may see some color and clarity issues with their water.  If so, the City recommends you run your cold-water faucet for a few minutes until the water clears.
