@JessicaBlumWx Was outside when it came through Lincoln. Took me a second to realize what it was. What a switch! 💨

Cold front is moving through Lincoln. Dropped 15° in the last half hour, from 72 down to 57 as of 1pm Friday.

Full disclosure - I double checked the DUI numbers and even when accounting for DUIs classified under other categories (crashes, etc) @lsochiefdeputy was still a few points short on New Year's Trivia. It was not "rigged" as alleged. 😂 Wishing everyone a safe & happy New Year!

A stray rain shower produced an impressive rainbow along Highway 77 near Roca, Nebraska this morning. Wow! 🤩🌈👀 Be sure to #BuckleUp and have a great Friday! @rustywx @WxRentschler

It’s a foggy, frosty ❄️ start to your Thursday in @LancasterCo_Ne. Keep those headlights on, watch your speed, and most importantly - #buckleup. Fall is definitely here 🍁. Have a safe one!!

Hamlow Elementary - THIS might be my favorite picture of the week. Extremely proud of the effort “Deputy Tim” & all our SROs put into making a positive impact in the lives of students. Grateful to partner with our amazing school districts across Lancaster County! @145activities

@DCSheriffNE Nice work @DCSheriffNE ! Keep the 🎙️ episodes coming!!

"You Are Not Alone", the latest episode of the Roll Call with the Omaha Sheriff podcast is out. Listen by following the link in the comments. This week, Sheriff Hanson brings together a powerful panel for an honest and heartfelt conversation about suicide awareness and prevention. Joining the Sheriff are Sergeant Mandy Peth, Supervisor of the DCSO Behavioral Health Unit, Jason Workman who is a licensed counselor/therapist and works with the Douglas County peer-support team, and two courageous suicide survivors, Dona Smith and Holly Daniels, who share their personal journeys of struggle, survival, and hope. Together, they discuss the warning signs to look for, the importance of breaking down stigma around mental health, and the resources available for those in crisis. This episode is a reminder that no one is alone, that help is always available, and that open conversations can save lives. If you or someone you know is struggling, please dial 988 to connect with the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline.

Happy first day of Fall! 🍁 This time of year also brings challenging visibility conditions for east/west bound drivers at sunrise & sunset. Be sure to take an extra look with that bright equinox sun aligning with our east/west roads. ☀️😎 #BuckleUp #happyfallyall
