Storm update - Saturday September 24

Wolfville Skyline

After a long night of punishing winds and relentless rain, Fiona is making her way out of the province.

Our Kings Regional Emergency Management Organization activated on Friday evening and staff from member towns and municipalities will continue to provide 24-hour staffing of the Emergency Coordination Centre until our communities are operating in the usual manner.

At this time, all members of the community are asked to stay off the roads so that our crews can make a dent in the storm clean-up. For Wolfville, this means clearing downed trees and debris.

Power concerns can be communicated directly to Nova Scotia Power.

For those who are starting to lose battery charge on devices or for those who are in need of water, or warmth, local comfort centres may activate. Port Williams is the first to announce this intention and a full list, and activation status can be found through Kings REMO.

To assist with clean-up efforts, the Wolfville Compost Site will be open to residents on Sunday from 11am - 4pm.

During this time of recovery, please take a moment to check-in on friends and neighbours and reach-out to those who might not have access to digital messaging.
