"To make sure we are fully capable to respond to any emergency or disaster that may occur," said Kia Xiong, a spokeswoman for the Santa Clara County OEM.
San Jose officials said city crews had been doing prep work on storm drains since the summer. But now, blowing wind and debris can still cause problems, clogging the flow of water and resulting in localized flooding."They’re working 24 hours a day.

The county’s OES activation begins at 8 p.m. Thursday. Additionally, 13 county warming centers are open, with two overnight centers activated in the South Bay.
