- ➤ The Eau Claire Fire Department answered over 30 calls Monday including two structure fires—one at a detached garage on the North side and one at an appliance on the West side where one person was treated for smoke inhalation, while crews also handled medical emergencies, arching wires, and motor vehicle accidents.

For those tracking hydration, sodium intake is key. A growing wave of research suggests that optimal health may require sodium levels two to three times higher than traditional guidelines.
That’s where LMNT comes in. This zero-sugar electrolyte mix offers a science-backed boost without the additives. Popular among athletes, intermittent fasters, and wellness-minded parents alike, it's redefining how people stay hydrated.
Try LMNT totally risk-free and get a free LMNT Sample Pack with any purchase. Pro tip: If you don’t like it, they’ll refund your order, no questions asked.
