The Borger City Council will be taking the next step in doing its part to get K2 and other synthetic drugs off the streets of the city.
This action will take place during the council’s upcoming regular meeting, set for 1:30 p.m. Tuesday, March 5, in the city council chambers of Borger City Hall, 600 North Main.
A cold front will sweep through the region on Monday, shifting our winds around from the west to the northeast at speeds averaging 20-30 mph. Compared to Sunday, high temperatures will drop about 10 degrees as highs rise into the upper 50s to the mid 60s by late day. Partly cloudy skies will prevail throughout the day on Monday with some upper level energy moving into the area during the late afternoon and evening. This could produce some isolated showers across the Panhandle for Monday night.
