In the "war cabinet" where Meo prepares for the worst

On November 11, Meo's operations center held a meeting to address the impact of Storm Charles, which led to school closures and teleworking across Portugal. The storm initially affected Madeira, causing road closures and issues with mobile sites. Despite challenges, Meo managed to maintain most of its network functionality. The situation was monitored closely, with teams prepared for potential outages. Customer service saw an increase in calls due to more people staying at home. Meo also provided preventive measures for customers and ensured readiness with mobile intervention units. By midday, the storm's impact was deemed less severe than anticipated, with the weather warning downgraded.
