From the city of Harker Heights:
Morning Winter Weather Update – February 19, 2021
Today the sun came out! Road conditions are slick this morning, but are already beginning to thaw some. The City is working some of the problem road areas this morning in hopes that the sun will help us get those in good condition. We have already lost one City vehicle, in route to a water leak, to accident with another vehicle just this morning, so please stay off of the roads if at all possible!
With improving road conditions citizens should be aware that grocery stores are depleted as trucks have not been able to reach them with additional stock. We have also heard that there will be a shortage for some time of milk and meat. The production of both was disrupted by the winter storm so it will be some time before the distribution network is restocked. Also, gas stations are almost out of unleaded fuel at this time. We will all have to be patient as stores are restocked with essentials.
City Hall will reopen today at 12 p.m.
Harker Heights is not under a boil water notice but we ask that you continue to conserve water. If you notice a water leak contact the City at 254-953-5600 and after hours at 254-681-6779.
The City continues to operate a warming center/shelter at the Recreation Center located at 307 Miller’s Crossing for any citizen in need.
Be patient, check on your neighbors, and continue to be courageous! Together, we as Texans are bigger than anything we face!
