Sanlúcar activates the pre-emergency for winds of up to 120 km/h

Wind gusts may reach 120 kilometres per hour in Sanlúcar de Barrameda. The Agencia Estatal de Meteorología (Aemet) maintains the orange warning for wind and storms from 12:00 to 23:59 this Wednesday, November 11, and a yellow warning for rain during the same period. Given that forecast, the Ayuntamiento has activated the Plan de Emergencia Municipal in its Fase 0, the pre-emergency phase, as indicated by the Consistorio. The most immediate consequence for residents is the closure of outdoor municipal facilities, announced on Tuesday, November 10. In addition, the Junta de Andalucía has suspended classes in schools. Fase 0 is activated when there are official weather warnings that may cause problems, although their impact is not yet considered serious. While it is active, the evolution of the weather is continuously monitored, municipal services are coordinated with the Policía Local and Protección Civil, and human and material resources are prepared in case intervention is needed.

The Ayuntamiento asks for extreme caution and recalls a series of measures to reduce risks:

The technical security committee met this morning at the Jefatura de la Policía Local to coordinate the arrangements. Those attending included the deputy mayors David González, Narciso Vital, Miguel Ángel Casal and Carmen Pozo; the delegate for Infraestructuras, David Cáceres; those responsible for the Policía Local, the Policía Nacional, Bomberos, Protección Civil, the municipal cleaning company Emulisan, the integral water cycle concessionaire Aqualia, the urban bus company Tussa and technicians from various delegations.
