Your city hall spent all week watching the sky.

Your City Hall was all about the sky this week

Good morning from the coulees — the wind's up, the sky's wide, and Lethbridge has something to say.

Look, this past week, the main conversation down at City Hall wasn't about budgets or bylaws. It was about blizzards and the wild weather moving across this land. The council spent a good deal of time just watching the sky, figuring out how to keep us all safe and sound when Ma’tápioyisahts, our Creator, decides to throw a real prairie tantrum.

* Blizzard preparedness was the big item, with crews ready for heavy snow. * Discussions focused on snow removal routes and emergency responses. * Updates from the city's emergency management team were frequent.

It felt like the wind itself was dictating the agenda, swirling through the chambers. This focus on the elements, it’s just how things go out here. We live with the weather, not just through it. For folks living near Henderson Lake or up past the university, knowing the city's got a plan for the next big dump of snow, well, that's what matters.

Good morning from the coulees — the wind's up, the sky's wide, and Lethbridge has something to say.
