Daily Five: A Safety Reminder, Breakfast Wanted and Firefighter Fundraiser

Five things to know for Friday, January 4, 2013.

 

1. What's the Weather? Mostly sunny, with a high near 38. West wind 5 to 14 mph. Tonight: Mostly clear, with a low around 19.

2. House Numbers Reminder Durham residents are reminded to keep their house number visible during the bad weather. Snow accumulation on mailboxes that covers the house number prevents house identification for Emergency Services First Responders.
