Ahead of the oncoming hurricane, the Weston Department of Public Works is asking residents to help them out by clearing storm drains near their property.

The DPW is in the process of clearing storm drains and waterways of fallen leaves throughout Weston before the storm hits later tonight and tomorrow to prevent flooding, according to a post on the town’s website.

“The rapid accumulation of falling leaves will require a continued effort on our part,” the post says.

Clogged basins and flooded roads can be reported to the DPW at 781-786-5100 or the Weston Police at 781-786-6201, the post says.
