Winter Storm Fern 2026

Happy Friday!
As we all are preparing for the bitter cold this weekend, the City of Weston Lakes has been actively participating in conference calls with State and Local emergency operations. We are sitting in on these calls daily to make sure we have the most up to date information. Right now, it is looking like everyone should be looking to stay home and stay warm, Saturday evening through Monday morning. You still have plenty of time to get everything you need and relax at home on Sunday!
Things the City wants you to know:
The Mayor confirmed with the Weston Lakes Country Club that IF NEEDED, the ballroom will be available as a warming center and charging station for residents.
Our emergency mangement team, along with city staff, has been in contact with AquaTexas and Inframark(MUD 81), and they are both prepared and monitoring the weather closely. There are links below to each of their statements on the upcoming weather.
The City of Weston Lakes is working closely with Fort Bend County Homeland Security and Office of Emergency Management, and they will be in full activation as of Saturday morning. We stand at increased readiness, and will continue to monitor the weather and provide with you any information you need.
