Weather forecast indicates that another storm with wind advisory (20 -30 mph with gusts to 40 mph, noon till 9pm Wed) is expected to arrive in the Long Beach area tonight and last until Wednesday evening. Public Service crews have restocked sand bags and sand at required locations, checked storm drains and pump stations. Two pump stations are down awaiting repairs: Pump Station 18 in El Dorado Park and Pump Station 7, the pump at Willow and Terminal Island Freeway (both sites currently cleared of water). As always, Public Service crews will monitor and stand by to respond as needed. Tides are not expected to be an issue during this event.
With the storms last week and what we are facing in the coming days, it will impact our ability to fill potholes due to the wet conditions. The storms also are taking a toll on much of our new construction (airport garage, Wardlow Street resurfacing, Long Beach Boulevard resurfacing, Rosa Parks Park, Seaside Park and others).
