Inclement weather precautions and reminders


We could locally see 4”-7” of rainfall possible in the next 48 hours and higher in some isolated areas. City officials are aware of the weather forecast and we are taking necessary precautions.

We are also reminding residents to be mindful of any impending weather forecasts. Public Works and Facilities crews will continue to be out prior to any weather events as part of normal precautionary operations. We will continue to monitor and provide updates as they become available.If you see a storm drain that appears to be obstructed, please remove the obstruction.

As an additional reminder be sure to also report non-emergency related issues to Pensacola 311. Below is a list of additional resources that can keep you up to date and connected to health and safety services.

Although inclement weather is expected, city sanitation collections remain on normal schedules. In order to minimize issues of containers floating away and blocking storm drains, please do not place your garbage or recycling containers in the street or gutter for collection. Instead, place the containers on the right-of-way within two feet of the roadway. For the same reason please avoid placing yard trash in the street or gutter.
