Hurricane Hilary Weather Advisory

As #hurricanehilary approaches SoCal, the US National Weather Service Los Angeles/Oxnard is forecasting the potential for strong tropical storm force winds, heavy rainfall, and the potential for flash flooding.

As the City prepares for the storm’s arrival, we want to make sure that La Verne residents are prepared too!

Here are a few safety tips to prepare for the tropical storm:

• If you can, stay home and wait out the storm
• Secure outdoor furniture and umbrellas
• Prepare your emergency kit
• Know you evacuation route
• Ensure your tires have proper tread and windshield wipers
• Ensure your headlights/taillights are working properly
• If you must drive, use extra caution. Slow down and be aware of your surroundings
• Avoid downed power lines and immediately report them by calling 911
• Check on neighbors
