Hi ,

After the National Hurricane Center issued its first-ever tropical storm watch for Southern California, the City of Los Angeles announced preparedness measures to ensure we are ready for the storm, protected when it hits, and well-positioned to respond in the aftermath to any damage it may cause.

I urge Angelenos to stay vigilant and utilize city resources. Please follow @ReadyLA ([link removed]) on social media and visit emergency.lacity.gov/updates to sign up forNotify L.A. ([link removed]) alerts and follow updates.

Read below for a list of ways to help you prepare, and all the efforts that the City is preparing now, during, and after the storm.

IMPORTANT RESOURCES
* Angelenos should register forNotifyLA ([link removed]) for local alerts. The Los Angeles City Emergency Management Department will post updates here. Follow @ReadyLA ([link removed]) on social media channels for updates.
* Hurricane safety tips and resources provided by the National Weather Service are available here. ([link removed])
* Los Angeles Department of Transportation Transit Operations will make any announcements involving significant road closures or transportation impacts here. ([link removed])

HOW TO REQUEST SUPPORT
* For impacts like roadway flooding, tree limbs blocking roads, or mudslides, Angelenos should request service throughhttp://LACity.gov/myla311LACity.gov/myla311 ([link removed]) or by calling 311. You also download the MyLA311 app. ([link removed])

HOW THE CITY IS PREPARING
* 311 will be expanding Sunday operating hours until 8:00 PM, and again until 11:00 PM if there is high call volume. Operating hours on Monday will be 7:00 AM to 7:00 PM and may be adjusted as needed. Calls related to the storm and possible fires will be tracked.
* The Emergency Management Department will be activated at a Level 2 as the hurricane develops and makes landfall.
* The City of Los Angeles is working with Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority to identify resources and establish augmented shelters across the City to provide shelter from the coming storm.
* To help Angelenos prepare for rainstorm needs, the Los Angeles Fire Department provides free ready-to-fill sandbags at all 106 Neighborhood Fire Stations. A list of locations can be found here. ([link removed])
* LADWP restoration crews are fully staffed and ready to respond to any power outages caused by Hurricane Hilary.
* Passengers are encouraged to confirm their flight’s status before they depart for LAX and to allow for enough time to travel to and from LAX.
* L.A. Animal Services’ Animal Control Officers and Specialized Mobile Animal and Rescue teams are ready to respond to any evacuation or rescue efforts.

The City of Los Angeles will be prepared and as always, we will be in coordination with county, state and federal partners as we move forward.
