CAPCOG urges use of warnings for bad weather

Mayor Jane Hughson’s report to the city council on happenings with the Capital Area Council of Governments (CAPCOG) last week focused on emergency warning services.

During her report to council, Hughson said the CAPCOG executive committee reviewed recommendations for Homeland Security grant funds and discussed other topics.

“What we spent a lot of time on was emergency notifications for weather-related events such as flood, hurricanes, tornadoes, whatever else might happen,” she said. “Warn-CentralTexas.org is what we want everyone to know about and sign up.”
