Wind Advisory and Flood Watch In Effect

The National Weather Service has issued a Wind Advisory for our area from Friday 11am to Saturday 6am. Winds of 20 to 30mph and gusts up to 55mph are possible. A flood watch is also in effect from Friday morning through late Friday night due to the potential for 2 to 3 inches of rainfall.

Wind Preparations

Be sure your property (including construction sites) is secure.

Bring in unsecured objects from patios and balconies and secure outdoor objects such as lawn furniture or garbage cans that could blow away and cause damage or injury.

The safest place to be during high winds is indoors. If at all possible postpone outdoor activities during a wind advisory or high wind warning.

Watch for flying debris. Tree limbs may break and street signs may become loose during strong wind gusts. Keep an eye toward nearby balconies for loose objects that may fall.

Report downed lines to your local police and fire departments or 911 for assistance.Do not try to free lines or to remove debris yourself.

Avoid anything that may be touching downed lines, including vehicles or tree branches. Puddles and even wet or snow-covered ground can conduct electricity in some cases. Warn others to stay away.
