As severe winter weather takes hold across Scotland, Dumfries and Galloway Council has launched a Facebook page dedicated to keeping people up to date on the weather situation here in Dumfries and Galloway.
The Facebook page – www.facebook.com/winterdg – will keep you up to date with latest winter information, including road closures, school closures and weather alerts. Everyone in the region is being urged to sign up to make sure they have the most up to date information at their finger tips.
Cllr Roger Grant, cCair of Planning and Environment committee ‘We have seen earlier than usual snow fall here in Dumfries and Galloway and some extremely cold temperatures but we are well prepared and our winter service plans are working, alongside out aims to increase community and individual resilience. By launching a Facebook page we aim to keep people in Dumfries and Galloway fully updated on the winter weather. Of course Facebook is a two way thing and we would welcome everyone to submit their pictures of the winter weather to the page.”
