Glynn County Severe Weather PSA Page

I’ve just become aware that Glynn County has a page on their web site devoted to severe weather, tropical storm and hurricane announcements. Here it is:

Severe Weather /TS/ Hurricane Updates

The announcements are issued both on the web page as PDF files and are sent out by e-mail. Here is an excerpt from the current announcement regarding the voluntary evacuation:

Glynn County Board of Commissioners has called for a voluntary evacuation for the islands (St. Simons, Jekyll Island, Sea Island, and Little St. Simons Island), low lying areas, and mobile homes that is effective immediately. At this time, an evacuation of the mainland is not anticipated. There are no plans to close {the] FJ Torras causeway at any time during the storm unless it is physically impossible to cross the causeway due to water. However, should conditions warrant a closure, emergency services will no longer be available to island residents and evacuation will not be possible.
