Weather Water Week: Keeping Our Lakes And Rivers Clean

Water Week has begun and we’ll be talking all things water!

Our Rising meteorologist Nicole talked with Charlotte Storm Water Services about our local rivers and waterways and how to keep them clean.

Don’t flush wipes and consider using face washes that don’t have plastic micro beads, like St. Ives, that can clump up in sinks.

Do not throw leaves, rocks and other yard waste down the drain as this can back up water and cause overflow on roads.

Keep your drains clear, especially on days with heavy rain in the forecast!
