Woodbury Patch Notebook

• US National Weather Service Twin Cities Minnesota: "Sunny weather is expected to begin the week. Monday should be the warmest day and winds could be a bit breezy out of the south. A low pressure system arrives from the west early Wednesday, providing chances of rain/rain showers Wednesday into Wednesday night." (Facebook)
• US National Weather Service Twin Cities Minnesota: "Above normal temperatures will continue for most of the rest of October. Highs in the 60s and 70s early week will fall into the low to mid 50s to end it. Normal highs in the 8-14 day period are in the lower 50s and it appears likely we'll be warmer than that as we head toward November." (Facebook)
• Woodbury, MN Police Fire EMS: "Police Officer/Firefighter Ryan Schroeder has worked for Woodbury Public Safety for 11 years. He has been an integral part of public safety training- for both police and fire- during his time here. Being an integrated public safety department can have some unintended consequences, since our people have opportunities to experience and explore varying interests: Ryan is leaving Woodbury Police today to become an Assistant Fire Chief for the City of Golden Valley." (Facebook)
