Redmond recalls last November’s storm, urges residents to prepare for severe weather
Summary
City of Redmond officials recapped last November’s bomb cyclone response — clearing roads and opening warming centers and charging locations — and directed residents to the fall digital focus newsletter for preparedness information.
Chris Raftis, the City of Redmond’s World Cup planning program manager, reminded listeners of the city’s response to a severe storm last November and urged residents to prepare for fall weather.
Raftis said City of Redmond crews “quickly responded to assess the damage, clear roads, and open city buildings as warming centers and charging locations” during the storm. He said the city is preparing to provide similar services for the next major storm and that residents can learn more via the fall digital focus newsletter.
The announcement described the actions taken last November in general terms — assessing damage, clearing roads and opening facilities — but did not specify the number or locations of warming centers or the total cost of the response. The city directed listeners to its online newsletter for detailed preparedness guidance.
