Attention Cambria Residents!

As we prepare for the upcoming storms, here are some reminders to stay storm-safe!

What to expect:

• Prepare for high winds with gusts up to 30+ MPH. We are expecting 2-3 inches of rain in the Cambria area from now until Friday morning, with possible flooding and hazardous driving conditions. Drive cautiously and do not cross flooded roadways.
• Avoid creeks and rivers.
• A high surf advisory is in effect from now until Thursday morning as well, so expect strong ocean rip currents and avoid the beach areas if possible.
• Stay tuned for weather updates and evacuation notices if necessary. 

How to prepare:

• Emergency Numbers: In case of emergency, dial 911.
• Electrical Outage: Report electrical outages to PG&E at 1-800-743-5002.
• Sandbag locations: Fill sandbags at the Cambria Dog Park (2021 Rodeo Grounds Rd.) or Lampton Park (Corner of Lampton and Windsor). Remember to bring your sandbags and shovels!
• Sandbags and Shovels: Purchase these essentials at your local hardware store.
• Charge Electronics: Ensure that your phones, laptops, and other essential devices are fully charged in case of power outages.
• Stay informed: Keep an eye on weather forecasts and emergency alerts. Follow official instructions and be prepared to evacuate if necessary.
