Hi HOTARC!
The dog days of summer are here! A high pressure heat dome
has dominated our weather for the last few months. It's been
months since any significant rain and no severe weather. El
Nino is on his way out and La Nina will be starting up soon. Be
careful in the heat and let's pray for rain! We are still expecting
an active hurricane system so stay weather aware.
As always the ARES team is ready to deploy if needed. Thanks
to everyone who is part of the team!
If you are interested in becoming a member of McLennan County
ARES, go to the HOTARC Web site under the frequently asked
questions and download the application.
E-mail or mail the completed application according to the
instructions listed at the bottom of the application. Your
application will be processed and you will receive an ARES ID
Card As always, the ARES team is ready to deploy if needed.
Thanks to everyone who is part of the team!
I'm looking forward to seeing everyone at the meeting.
