This is an AC Alert from the Piedmont Fire Department.
A National Weather Service Red Flag Warning that includes Piedmont will be in effect from Tuesday, November 5 at 11am until Thursday, November 7 at 7am due to strong offshore winds and dry conditions.
Help prevent fires and keep roads clear for emergency responders during this period of heightened risk:
- Use extreme caution when operating BBQs, power equipment, or other heat sources, such as idling cars.
- Park off-street to keep streets clear for emergency vehicles.
- Call 9-1-1 immediately if you see signs of fire.
Be prepared to evacuate:
- Keep your phone on and with you to receive alerts. Do not use “do not disturb” mode during high risk weather.
- Pack or refresh your go-bag and place it by your front door.
- Review evacuation routes. Identify two paths out of your neighborhood by car and two by foot.
- Back your car into your garage or driveway, so you are able to leave quickly if needed.
