National Weather Service “storm spotter” meeting in HMB Tues

Press release

By on Sat, December 1, 2007

There will be a "storm spotter" meeting at the Adcock Center in Half Moon Bay Tuesday, Dec 11from 7 to 9pm.

At this public meeting, you learn how to prepare at home or away for severe weather, understand the strength of heat waves and winter weather, learn how to recognize dangerous conditions and how you can relay local weather information to the Half Moon Bay Police and/or directly to the National Weather Service.

Half Moon Bay is one of the many severe weather-prone areas in California.  Each year, we cope with rainstorms, high winds and even thunderstorms that cause flooding.  The City of Half Moon Bay will be able to help the National Weather Service and its weather and warning programs.

Spotter trained communities are better prepared to save lives from the onslaught of severe weather through better planning, education, and awareness. No community is storm proof, but spotters can help communities save lives. 

RSVP to the Half Moon Bay Police Department (650) 726-8288.
