City monitors Tropical Storm Edward; council to decide on follow-up meeting

Emergency management staff (Tranthan) updated the council on the tropical system dubbed 'Edward,' reporting the storm continued to wobble northeast and that landfall was forecast for the next afternoon. The staff member said the National Weather Service's uncertainty left a wide rainfall range and advised council to expect between "0 to 8 inches of rain" depending on the track.

Council asked for updated forecasts in the morning and directed staff to email revised advisories; the city agreed to reassess whether the next scheduled meeting would proceed and to use the storm update to confirm logistics for staff and council. The mayor and staff also discussed contingency meeting locations and communications to the public.
