ROAD CONDITIONS
Roads and sidewalks remain somewhat frozen, making for dangerous conditions in certain places. We expect roads, bridges, and sidewalks to re-freeze tonight and cause unsafe conditions in the morning. Please do not travel unless it’s absolutely necessary!
For the latest weather updates, make sure you’re following the US National Weather Service Fort Worth Texas and local news stations.
POWER OUTAGES
The National Weather Service expected up to a half inch of freezing rain today and with this it could potentially mean power outages as lines become heavy from the freezing rain. Keep your phone charged today and flashlights handy, just in case.
If you do lose power, outages can be reported directly to Oncor by texting “OUT” to 66267, calling 1-888-313-4747, or visiting https://stormcenter.oncor.com/.
WATER-RELATED EMERGENCIES
For water-related emergencies, please call the Police Department non-emergency line at 972-544-2225. Stay warm today!
CITY OPERATIONS
As a reminder, non-emergency City facilities are closed today and will be closed tomorrow as well due to road conditions.
