Aldine ISD preparing for Tropical Depression 8

Disponible en:

Aldine ISD is closely monitoring Tropical Depression 8. The National Hurricane Center has placed the Texas coast from High Island to Port Mansfield under a Tropical Storm Watch. Tropical Depression 8 is heading towards Texas and could strengthen to Tropical Storm Hannah making landfall in Matagorda Bay.

The Aldine area should expect to receive 1 to 3 inches of rain. Street flooding is highly likely and bayous, creeks and rivers may also rise above their banks.

Aldine ISD’s Operations Department, Buildings and Properties Department, Maintenance Department and Technology Department are all preparing for the storm. Plans are in place to respond to flooding issues that may affect Aldine ISD campuses and district facilities.

Conditions are expected to worsen Friday evening with Saturday the predicted day the depression/storm makes landfall.

Again, Aldine ISD will continue to monitor TD 8 and will also monitor media reports.
