The Hot Sheets: June 25th, 2024

Southwest Nebraska Public Health Department

Southwest Nebraska Public Health Department (SWNPHD) has been notified of high levels of E. Coli at Medicine Creek State Recreation Area, also known as Harry Strunk Lake, located in Frontier County. This means the water has a higher than usual number of bacteria, and residents should take extra care to not swallow any lake water.&nbsp;&nbsp;

“With the assistance of DHHS, we carefully monitor our lakes weekly during the summer for potential health risks,” explains Melissa Propp, Clinic Manager at SWNPHD. “When a lake has high E Coli levels, we recommend using caution around the water. If you are going to swim, make sure not to swallow water and don’t allow pets to drink the lake water.”&nbsp;

According to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), swimming during high E Coli levels can cause health issues. Young children should not be in the water at this point in time, since they are more susceptible to complications from E. Coli and other bacterial infections.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Symptoms can include abdominal cramps or pain, diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, fever, and loss of appetite, usually 3 or 4 days after exposure to the water. If you swam and are having these symptoms, contact your medical provider.&nbsp;

“Bacteria levels can change quickly and usually do not last long, depending on the conditions,” stated Propp. “You can check the Beach Watch website which is updated weekly by the Nebraska Department of Environment and Energy (NDEE), from May through September.”&nbsp;&nbsp;

For more information call SWNPHD at 308-345-4223. Southwest Nebraska Public Health Department serves Chase, Dundy, Frontier, Furnas, Hayes, Hitchcock, Keith, Perkins, and Red Willow counties. The website swhealth.ne.gov contains many resources and additional information helpful to prevent disease, promote wellness, and protect health. You can also follow SWNPHD on Facebook, Instagram, YouTube and TikTok.&nbsp;

Harry Strunk Lake Health Notice 

LINCOLN, NE&nbsp;-- Governor Jim Pillen is taking two immediate actions to help mitigate the impacts resulting from a series of strong storms that resulted in damage to nearly 20 Nebraska counties.

The storms occurred May 20 – June 3, resulting in severe thunderstorms, high winds, multiple tornadoes, heavy rain and flooding. There was damage to private property, public property and infrastructure in Butler, Colfax, Dodge, Douglas, Dundy, Fillmore, Hamilton, Hayes, Hitchcock, Howard, Keith, Lincoln, Platte, Polk, Red Willow, Saunders and Washington counties.

Gov. Pillen has issued an emergency disaster declaration, which will free up state funds and resources to assist those counties in addressing damage and other issues.

In a separate, but related action, Gov. Pillen has asked the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) for additional time to complete preliminary damage assessments in those counties. Those assessments will further support the state’s request for federal assistance. The 30-day extension, if approved, would last until Aug. 2.

The Hot Sheets: June 23rd, 2024

North Platte, Ne - Around 3am Saturday a small cluster of storms rolled through Lincoln County, however they packed a punch with winds that uprooted trees and even took the roof off an outbuilding at Mead Lumber at the corner of 6th and Eastman.&nbsp;

Dillon and Crystal Johnson live across the the street to the south and said "the wind hit around 3am, we heard a loud bang (sound) and the electricity went off." The Johnson's said city workers were quick to the scene and began to clear the street and work on getting electricty restored which they did about 50 minutes later. When the roof blew off it caught the power line as it sailed across the street.&nbsp;

Brandon Jones,&nbsp;Vice President of Construction Operations at Beveridge Incorporated was on the scene Saturday morning and said they were bringing in an excavator to help get the roof out of the tree.&nbsp;

There was damage all over North Platte including the airport where Trego Dugan had hanger doors damaged.&nbsp;

The National Weather Service was out surveying damage Saturday morning but hasn't released a statement in regards to what may have played a part in the wind damage. The Weather Service is calling for partly sunny, then gradually becoming sunny, with a high near 87 today. North northwest wind 10 to 15 mph, with gusts as high as 20 mph.

The Lexington Police Department have identified the 39-year-old as Genaro Martinez-Martinez. Officials say they have worked with Homeland Security but have been unsuccessful in locating any family.&nbsp;

Lexington, Neb. - The Lexington Police Department suspects no foul play in the death of a man who was found lying in an alley last week.&nbsp;

On Thursday, June 13th at 6:15 pm, officers along with Lexington Fire and Rescue were dispatched to an alley downtown to a call of a male subject laying down. When first responders arrived on scene and evaluated the situation, it was determined the suspect was deceased.&nbsp;

According to the Lexington Police Department, investigation has revealed that the male subject was a 39-year-old not from the United States and was homeless. He had been in the Lexington area for one - two months. The male has been identified by officials but are withholding his identity pending family notification as they are still searching for any family.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Evidence at the scene and an autopsy finding showed the male suffered rear head injuries, presumably from a backwards fall according to officials. No foul play is suspected. The investigation is still on-going.&nbsp;

The Hot Sheets: June 21st, 2024

CHAPPELL, Neb. — The spirit of the Pony Express lives on as modern-day riders, known as the Pony Express Re-Riders, embarked on their annual journey from St. Joseph, Missouri to Sacramento, California. Covering nearly 2000 miles, these dedicated riders are racing against time, aiming to complete the historic route in just 10 days.

Equipped with a GPS device known as a SPOT tracker, securely nestled in the mochila, each rider carries the responsibility of ensuring the timely delivery of the mail. The SPOT tracker sends a signal, or "ping," to a satellite every five minutes, allowing enthusiasts and supporters to monitor their progress in real-time on a larger National Park Service map.

Today, the Pony Express Re-Riders passed through Chappell, a small town bustling with excitement at the sight of these modern-day couriers. Locals and visitors alike gathered at the junction of Hwy 30 and Hwy 385 to witness this historical reenactment firsthand.

"I caught them at the junction and it was an amazing sight," remarked one spectator. "To see them riding through, carrying on this tradition, it's truly inspiring."

From Chappell, the riders continue their journey, making their way towards Bridgeport and onward to Guernsey, Wyoming.&nbsp; Each stage of the ride echoes the resilience and determination that characterized the original Pony Express riders over a century ago.

The annual Pony Express Re-Ride not only honors the legacy of the original Pony Express, which operated from 1860 to 1861, but also serves as a reminder of the enduring spirit of adventure and the importance of communication in shaping the American West.

As the riders press forward, their progress can be tracked on the NPS map, where the Pony Rider Icon moves steadily westward, marking each mile of this remarkable journey across the heart of America.

For updates and to follow the Pony Express Re-Ride's progress, visit the National Park Service map displaying the SPOT tracker data at&nbsp;<a href="https://nationalponyexpress.org/">https://nationalponyexpress.org/</a>

The Hot Sheets: June 19th, 2024

OGALLALA, Neb. — The transfer of a racing license from Adams County to Keith County faces a delay of at least one month.

Hastings Exposition and Racing presented their proposal to the Nebraska Racing and Gaming Commission last Tuesday, aiming to relocate their license to Ogallala and collaborate with Elite Casinos to establish Lake Mac Casino, the Casino would also have a quarter horse race track.

However, the Nebraska Racing and Gaming Commission determined that Hastings Exposition and Racing lacked essential documentation necessary for approval.

One outstanding requirement is evidence of construction feasibility west of the Wal-Mart near the interstate.

Additionally, the commission stipulated that the race track must be constructed and inspected by Nebraska Racing and Gaming Commision officials before any license transfer can be considered.

Hastings Exposition and Racing has until June 28th now to furnish the required information. The commission plans to revisit the matter during its meeting on July 19th.

In a 5-2 vote, commissioners opted to postpone further deliberation until the upcoming session. Should the license transfer be authorized, HER anticipates hosting its inaugural race on Labor Day in 2025.

The Nebraska Legislature has already directed the Nebraska State Racing and Gaming Commission to conduct economic and social impact studies to determine eligible sites for new racetracks, which must be completed no later than January 1, 2025. The Ogallala City Council and Keith County Board of Commissioners provided exclusive support for this project.
