Napa County under flood watch from March 9-12; Sandbags available. Please exercise caution. Additional details in link:
Napa County is under a flood watch effective Thursday afternoon, March 9 through Sunday morning. This weather event is expected to bring winds, heavy rain, flooding, and increased potential for power outages.
Due to very saturated soils, even winds on the lower end of the speed range can cause downed trees. When trees fall, this can be a threat to lives, cause power outages, and add debris to our roadways.
Please continue to exercise caution when on the road. If you see a downed or sagging power line, assume it is energized and extremely dangerous. Do not touch or try to move it, stay clear of the area, call 9-1-1 and PG&E at 1-800-743-5002.
