The Junta de Freguesia of São Bartolomeu de Messines publicly thanked the commitment of staff who were on duty to respond to any incidents resulting from Storm Charles. Four teams were on standby in various areas of the parish and within Vila de Messines, supported by two staff members with a truck and a backhoe loader.
Fortunately, the storm's intensity did not match forecasts, with only minor, non-serious incidents recorded in the parish. The Junta de Freguesia highlighted the importance of the support and collaboration from the Volunteer Firefighters of São Bartolomeu de Messines and the Civil Protection Service of the Municipality of Silves in monitoring the situation.
Gratitude was also extended to the public for their attention and adherence to Civil Protection guidelines, which contributed to everyone's safety.
