Following Friday night’s severe storms, the City and CPS Energy continue working around the clock to restore power, clear debris and hazards, repair damaged infrastructure, and support our community as San Antonio recovers.

They are currently scheduled to remain open through noon Monday, August 31. The City will reassess conditions at that time and determine whether extended operations are needed.

During the day, City libraries and community centers remain available as places to stay cool.
