Rockville City Hall Loses Power
Residents Asked to Stay Off Roads
ROCKVILLE, MD, July 25, 2010 -- Rockville City Hall lost power during a round of severe afternoon thunderstorms. Phone lines to City Hall are not operating.
The powerful line of storms also knocked out power to the Rockville Swim and Fitness Center, and to traffic signals along Routes 28 and 355 and elsewhere in the city. In addition to the power outages, the severe storms downed numerous trees throughout the city.
Rockville City Police are asking residents to stay home and off of roads as clean up efforts take place. Police are also asking residents who may need assistance to call the Montgomery County Police non-emergency number at 301-279-8000. If a resident has an emergency, call 911.
