🌧️ Preparing for Winter Weather Through Regional Partnerships 🚒

Today, Porterville Fire Chief Bryan Cogburn and newly appointed Public Works Director David Payne attended the El Niño Weather Preplanning Meeting hosted by Tulare County Fire and the Tulare County Incident Management Team.

The meeting brought together representatives from fire departments, water districts, and other agencies throughout Tulare County to discuss preparations for potential winter storms and flooding.

Discussions focused on identifying critical infrastructure, evaluating available resources, sharing information, and coordinating emergency response efforts across the county.

Preparation and coordination are key to an effective emergency response. By working together before severe weather arrives, our regional partners can better protect the communities we serve.

🌧️🌳 Winter Prep Wednesday – Week 2! 🌳🌧️

Look up! Look around! Get storm ready!

Strong winds, heavy rain, and saturated soil can turn weak trees and branches into dangerous hazards.

🏡 This week, take a walk around your property and check for dead branches, leaning trees, and anything that could become a hazard during a storm.

⚠️ Remember: Never attempt to remove branches near power lines. Leave that to the professionals!

🌧️ Prepare early. Stay informed. Stay safe.
