Please see the attached message from Caldwell OEM about the forecasted weather.
With the potential for severe weather over the next couple days, Caldwell’s Office of Emergency Management reminds residents to prepare now for the following:
Expect heavy rain overnight with localized flooding and gusty winds to be followed by a dramatic drop in temperatures by late tomorrow afternoon. Low temperatures will be accompanied by powerful winds creating dangerous wind chills, flash freezing and black ice on sidewalks and roadways. These conditions may bring down trees and wires resulting in power outages.
We urge residents to prepare now for the storm. Have flashlights with fresh batteries on hand, check on elderly neighbors who may need assistance if they lose power, limit travel during the storm, stay away from downed branches or wires, and use 911 to report any emergencies.
Thank-You and be safe
Instructions:
Take proper safety precautions to prepare for effects of the weather.
