An Advisory Board of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration & National Weather Service recently re-certified St. Charles as a StormReady Community. The designation is granted every three years to communities that have met or exceeded requirements for severe weather preparation. The City of St. Charles has been a certified StormReady Community since 2014.
Have you ever wondered how your electricity reaches your home outlets? It has a long journey! The City receives its power from the Illinois Municipal Electric Agency, and transporting that power to your home is a team effort between the City and ComEd. After receiving the electricity through ComEd’s transformers and transmission lines, the electricity enters the City’s utility grid through a “step down” substation, and then on through the City’s distribution lines and transformers, before continuing to your house and powering your appliances and electronics.
The St. Charles Police Department would like to remind the community to be alert while driving for the safety of our children in our neighborhoods and around our schools.
