PREPARE FOR THE STORMS!
Check out cool new County real-time Rain Map
As we get plenty of
much-needed rain
, we need to be ready for these storms.
Contra Costa County has taken steps to prepare for the heavy rains. We urge residents to also prepare.
Check the County's
Flood Preparedness Website
,
which has helpful details and links. The county also
provides free sandbags at various filling stations
(just bring your own shovel).
The Contra Costa County Flood Control and Water Conservation District recently unveiled a cool new Rain Map web page, which works well on both iPhones and Android smart phones.
You access the "Flood Control Rain Map" on your Internet
