Summary
City staff announced srcity.org/weather, a new site with nine automated weather stations, interactive maps, and wildfire and winter-storm preparedness resources for Santa Rosa residents.
Santa Rosa City staff announced a citywide weather website, srcity.org/weather, that provides real-time observations from nine neighborhood weather stations and preparedness information for wildfire and winter-storm seasons.
The site aggregates local data into an interactive map and individual station tiles so residents can view temperature, humidity, wind speed and direction, fuel moisture, daily rainfall, elevation and other readings at neighborhood scale. Staff emphasized the site’s use for both everyday planning and emergency preparedness.
A Staff member, City staff, said, "This new website features information tiles for all 9 weather stations in the city, an easy to use interactive map, and information about how residents can prepare for changing or critical weather conditions during wildfire season or winter storm season." The presentation identified one station as "SRFD Station 1," located on the roof of Santa Rosa Fire Department Station 1 on Sonoma Avenue, and noted that clicking station icons on the map opens each station’s information tile.
The site includes tabs with background on the city’s remote automated weather stations, frequently asked questions, and guidance about fire and rainstorm preparedness. The city encouraged residents to bookmark srcity.org/weather to monitor conditions across Santa Rosa.
No formal council action or vote on the website was recorded in the transcript; the item was presented as an informational announcement.
