IDHS is proactively monitoring the incoming winter weather and partnering with local communities to meet their needs over the coming days. Hoosiers should prepare now for extreme cold – stay home and limit your exposure outside.

Winter safety tips:
* Have a home disaster kit ready in case of power outages for multiple days or if road conditions prevent you from getting everyday supplies.
* Prepare for travel emergencies by having a vehicle emergency kit ready.
* Wear warm clothing to limit your exposure to wind and cold temperatures. Use a hat, coat, mittens, pants, socks and closed shoes.
* Before traveling, check the county travel status map for advisories, watches and warnings. Also, stay informed on weather service forecasts and traffic conditions.
* When driving, slow down and leave plenty of distance between yourself and other vehicles. You need extra time to react and avoid an accident.
* Avoid using alternative heating sources, such as space heaters and fireplaces, but practice proper safety precautions if you do. Never use home appliances, such as ovens, to stay warm.

Congratulations to our very own, Lieutenant Fiscus!

Today, Tyler Fiscus received his firefighter shield from Chief Frank and officially moved off probation. A milestone that marks the end of an intense and rewarding first year in the firehouse.

The probationary year is never easy. It’s a year spent learning to fit into the firehouse culture, mastering apparatus driving, adjusting to life in the station, and working alongside all three shifts, each with its own rhythm and expectations. On top of all of that, Tyler pushed himself even further by earning his NREMT and several other certifications during his first year.

Tyler’s dedication, attitude, and work ethic have shown exactly what it means to step into this profession with purpose. Congratulations, Tyler well earned!
