San Diego County is expected to see its first real rains in months this weekend and the County of San Diego and CAL FIRE have free sandbags to help residents in unincorporated communities protect their homes and properties.
When the storms hit, San Diego County’s Department of Public Works takes to the streets. They clear debris on unincorporated roads to make conditions safer for drivers. To report debris, call 858-565-5262.
The sun is shining, but weather forecasts say summer storms could possibly create heavy rains and flooding in the mountains and deserts this week. Could be a good time to stock up on free sandbags!
If your property sustained damage during the storms that struck the week of Valentine’s Day, the County would like your help estimating the cost for our region.
A series of powerful storms means this rainy weather won’t be stopping anytime soon. County Public Works crews hit the road-even in heavy rain-to keep you safe. They work 12-hour shifts, setting up barricades on flooded roadways, and fill potholes, to make the hazardous driving conditions a little less hazardous.
San Diego County’s first significant storm of the season is expected to arrive Wednesday night and Thursday, with more rain possible on the weekend. So this may be a good time to stock up on some free sandbags to protect your home and property.
It’s hot now, but our rainy months are coming. County residents have until 11 p.m. Sunday to buy a discounted, top-of-the-line, $90 Ivy rain barrel online, thanks to San Diego County’s Watershed Protection Program and the nonprofit Solana Center.
