In Other News… (Non-COVID Updates)

While the following is not related to COVID, it is news from Marin County's Emergency Operations Center that we thought you should know about.

 

NEW Red Flag Warning Issued for Wednesday through Friday

Fire season isn’t over just yet, Marin. The National Weather Service has issued another Red Flag Warning for higher elevation areas of Marin County from 10 p.m. Wednesday, October 21 to 8 a.m. Friday, October 23. A Red Flag Warning means that critical fire weather conditions are expected during this time frame for strong wind gusts and hot, dry conditions. Residents are advised to exercise extreme caution during the Red Flag Warning because a simple spark could cause a major wildfire, including the use of equipment and machinery as well as smoking.
