As you can imagine, visibility is very limited in areas that were affected by the Windy Fire on US 12 and SD 73. Please slow down and use extreme caution in these areas.

This afternoon, we took part in an after action meeting for the #WindyFire. Responding agencies gathered to discuss what went well and what we could have improved on. We again can’t thank all those that responded enough.

Good luck to the Lemmon Cowboy and Cowgirl wrestlers this weekend as they head to State in Rapid City. It is always an honor for us to be able to escort you out of town! #GoGetEm https://t.co/93sv6C71jB

We’re seeing many frozen sewer vents as we patrol the county. Take some time and check your vents and your neighbors vents. Clearing your sewer vent and keeping your family safe only takes a few minutes! #CheckYourVents

⚠️⚠️⚠️ICE REPORT⚠️⚠️⚠️

Unusual winter has caused the quality of #ice on Shadehill to be very sketchy. Use EXTREME caution when around the ice. Staying off the ice in this condition is the best thing to do. @SDGameFishParks

As if the #rain in January wasn’t enough of a clue, it’s a tad #icy out tonight. Please take your time not only driving on the roads but also walking pretty much anywhere. Unless of course you swap out your tennis shoes for ice skates, then you’ll probably be alright.

2020 has been rough enough for everyone, don't finish off the year and begin your 2021 by spending it in jail. Trust us, the mattresses aren't real soft. If you're going out tonight, remember we are too. Do yourself and everyone else a favor, don't drink and drive this New Years.

Merry Christmas from all of us at the Perkins County Sheriff’s Office. Have a safe and blessed holiday. If you plan on drinking, please designate a sober driver.

Thank you to all #Veterans who have served and are currently serving our great country. The Sheriff’s Office is lucky enough to have two veterans on our team.

Thank you to Deputy Karels and Deputy Kindsvogel for continuing to serve!

Oh you know, just another day out doing Deputy stuff. #WeDoItAll #CattleRoundUp

Spending the #LaborDay weekend with your family and friends sounds a lot more fun than spending it in our jail. If you plan to drink this weekend make sure to have a designated driver. Our Deputies will be out ensuring everyone is being safe this weekend. #Drivesober
