Good morning, Eau Claire.

Small business owner Erin Klaus at Tangled Up in Hue posted a Facebook note about ongoing economic struggles in Chippewa Valley that slowed foot traffic and drove shoppers to support her store; the community response may not be enough to prevent closures if local spending does not pick up soon.

Wisconsin Salt Wise has launched Winter Salt Week to highlight the environmental and economic impacts of road salt in Eau Claire and surrounding communities.

The initiative will encourage locals to explore alternative road maintenance techniques this winter.
