Today, with the help of Wayne Co. Gov., EMA, Reid Health, & our amazing volunteers, we gave away ~95,000 masks so everyone can stay safe through the holidays. Thank you to everyone who came out to do their part. Let’s have a safe and merry Christmas! Stay strong, Richmond!

Very warm temperatures combined with increasing humidity will result in the heat index rising into the mid to upper 90s today. If spending time outdoors, take extra precautions. Stay hydrated and wear light, loose-fitting clothing, if possible.

Whether you call @WayneEMA Director Matthew Cain the wizard from “The Wizard of Oz” or not, he says they have a lot in common. Just like the wizard, most of the time EMA’s work coordinating resources and plans is not directly seen. #EMAWeek2020 bit.ly/EMAWeek2020

We're expecting continued heavy rain today, which could lead to localized flooding and standing/running water on roadways. Don't let this be you! If you see water on a roadway, turn around and find an alternative route!

While we recommend avoiding travel tomorrow during the winter storm, if it’s necessary, make sure you have a winter vehicle preparedness kit! Don’t know what you should have in your kit? 👀👇🏼👇🏼👀
