Be ready for wet travel conditions

Above-average rainfall is in the forecast next week. Prepare to travel in wet conditions:

Check windshield wiper blades and replace them if needed.

Consider new tires if treads are worn. Worn tires make braking challenging and can cause hydroplaning in wet conditions.

Drive slowly and increase stopping distance. Streets may be slick due to oil that collects on road surface over the summer.

Use lights and wear bright or reflective clothing If walking, biking or rolling so drivers can see you.

Keep sidewalks free of wet leaves, which can be slippery. Property owners are responsible for maintaining sidewalks adjacent to their property.
