Hi Lauren Redmond,

High Winds Expected Tomorrow - Baltimore Residents asked to secure trash
receptacles
Since a high wind watch is in effect from Friday afternoon through the
evening, Public Works Director Alfred H. Foxx has asked citizens to secure
their trash receptacles to prevent debris from being blown into streets,
alleys and yards. “Last Saturday, windy conditions led to trash and debris
being blown against fence lines, into median strips, across streets and
alleys, and throughout our parks. We are asking residents to secure their
trash receptacles and report any piles of trash bags on streets, at the ends
of alleys or on corners by calling those locations into 311.”

Winds of 20 to 30 mph with gusts up to 60 mph are possible. These winds can
blow trash from loosely tied or ripped bags and create airborne hazards and
get into streams and eventually the harbor. Baltimore City law requires the
use of trashcans. Trash and recycling needs to be stored until the next
regularly scheduled collection day. Residents should make sure all loose
objects on their property are secured or brought inside.
