Este Mes de la Salud del Corazón, cuidemos nuestros corazones juntos ❤️

Dormir es más que solo descansar, es una forma de sanar. Cuando nos damos de 7 a 9 horas de sueño de calidad, permitimos que nuestros corazones tengan tiempo para recuperarse, regular la presión arterial y reducir el estrés diario. Un corazón bien descansado es un corazón más fuerte.

La salud de nuestra comunidad comienza con hábitos pequeños y significativos, y un buen sueño es uno de ellos. A continuación, se presentan algunos consejos útiles para ayudarle a dormir mejor.

Manténgase atento este mes mientras compartimos más formas sencillas y de apoyo para que todos podamos proteger y fortalecer nuestro corazón juntos.

This Heart Health Month, let’s take care of our hearts together ❤️

Sleep is more than just rest, it’s healing. When we give ourselves 7–9 hours of quality sleep, we allow our hearts time to recover, regulate blood pressure, and reduce daily stress. A well-rested heart is a stronger heart.

Our community’s health starts with small, meaningful habits, and good sleep is one of them. Below are a few helpful tips to help you get better sleep

Stay tuned this month as we share more simple, supportive ways we can all protect and strengthen our hearts together.

...Localized Threat for Ice Jam Flooding Continues Along the Platte and Loup River Systems Through at Least Wednesday...

Unseasonably-warm temperatures will continue to promote steady ice melt and ice movement along the Platte, North Loup, Middle Loup, South Loup and Loup Rivers in central and south central Nebraska over the next few days. This could result in the continued formation of localized ice jams. Should any ice jams happen to develop, water levels could fluctuate as much as 1 to 3 feet in a short time, causing flooding with little, if any notice. This is especially true for known, ice jam prone locations.

Residents of the area should monitor later forecasts and be alert for possible Flood Warnings. Those living in areas prone to flooding should be prepared to take action should flooding develop.
