The Napa Valley Register publishes monthly statistics on arrests and convictions for driving under the influence — and so-called “wet reckless” convictions — in Napa County. Statistics are published in print the first Monday of each month and online when they become available.

With the New Year’s Eve flood of 2005 fresh on the minds of many Napans, rainstorms have some locals hitting the stores for wet weather gear, while others make preparations outdoors.

Mail theft is on the rise, according to Napa County Sheriff’s Capt. John Robertson.

Calistoga police arrested two Napans on Wednesday in connection with several vehicle burglaries the same day.

If Napa County residents can make it through the pounding downpours and fierce winds expected Friday, they will have weathered the worst of the storms that arrived with steady rain on Thursday morning.
