It's been an unusually warm and dry winter in Aurora and beyond and that's led to several red flag warnings. What exactly does that mean though, and are there steps we can take to keep ourselves and our community safe? Aurora Fire Rescue shares the answers. Also on this week's show, Mayor Coffman pens an op-ed in the Denver Post about how Aurora Water leads the way when it comes to conservation; the new Aurora Clinical Navigation program which routes less critical Aurora911 calls to a virtual doctor is showing success; and the new 2026 Visit Aurora Guide is out with hundreds of great places to eat, shop and play right in our own backyard. Those stories and more this week on Aurora Now.
