Tonight, out of an abundance of caution, we activated our CERT Team on Bolivar Pennisula. Ron picked up the CERT Trailer filled with supplies to assure they were available if needed.

Thanks to The Eagle’s Lodge at Chrystal Beach for the donation of the generator and other supplies. Of course this incident is a great way for us to test our responses and assure our team can be there in a disaster.

Preparedness is peace of mind. 🇺🇸💙

CERT Family, let’s stay weather aware this week!

The system south of Louisiana has been upgraded to a 50% chance of development in the next 48hrs as it drifts WNW over the next few days. Regardless of whether it develops, this system is expected to bring an increased risk of heavy rain and flash flooding by Tuesday.
