 Tomorrow is World Mental Health Day.
Who is not feeling a bit stressed or anxious these days?
Part of keeping yourself or others healthy, safe and well in emergencies, disasters and stressful situations, is taking care of our emotional well-being. Today, let's commit to being there for each other, making time to check in on our friends, family and neighbors. Make a phone call, schedule a Zoom hangout, or mail a note or greeting card. Remember to care for yourself, too. Take care.

We're coming into the fall & winter months when people are inside more and become sick more often. Are your symptoms from allergies, a cold, the flu, #COVID19, asthma, or strep throat? Take a look at this chart to find out. Always contact your doctor if you have concerns.
The average daily evaporation of Lake Tahoe is half a billion gallons of water. This would meet the daily water needs of 5 million people, or enough to support the cities of San Francisco and Los Angeles! This fun fact comes from our friends at the UC Davis Tahoe Environmental Research Center. You can learn more about evaporation here.
 Want to stay in the Orange tier? Keep doing the things that decrease your susceptibility to any virus: use face coverings, keep distance from others, wash our hands, eat & sleep well, and take vitamins if needed. It's the best way to move ahead as a County. #COVID19
