With Summer is typically a time for fun but keep in mind adverse weather can threaten that fun and possibly turn things seriously opposite of fun! Stay weather aware, regardless if it is everyday sun and heat and especially National Weather Service reports pf possible or occurring severe weather. We have a lot of possibilities for flooding in our area, be aware of the hazards associated with floods. Please do not please yourself and/or family in harms way if you come upon a flooded roadway – TURN AROUND, DON’T DROWN. Along with keeping you and your family safe, that is one less incident that first-responders have to place themselves in harms way to rescue those who disregard the warnings!

Information was received that a Baofeng dual-band was recovered by the Clearfield State Police in southern Clearfield County on May 18, 2023.
If you or know of anyone who might have lost a handheld and are able properly identify the radio, contact Cleafield PSP at 814-857-3800.
This is all the information we have.

It might seem like it might be just a cute saying
