Snow is coming!! Be sure to give yourself extra time this evening and tomorrow morning as the roads may be slick. Also, DO NOT leave a running vehicle unlocked or unattended. Car theft seems to increase this time of year for that very reason. So please, please lock your doors and help lower your risk. Drive safe!
