Hurricane Isabel

Hurricane season is now upon us. The Atlantic hurricane season runs from June 1 through to November 30. Included below are some helpful links to prepare and keep abreast of the weather when a storm approaches.

Preparedness and Tracking Links

  • You can get general state preparedness information from the South Carolina Emergency Management Division. Their South Carolina Hurricane Guide is a great tool for planning and preparing for the storm. Do your preparation now before there is a storm heading our way.
  • The Dorchester County Emergency Management Department provides county specific information. You can also sign up for emergency alerts from the EMD to you phone.
  • When there is a storm, go to the source for the most current storm information. The National Hurricane Center is the source of Atlantic storm tracking which will affect us.
  • Report power outages to Dominion Energy. You can also check where power outages are occurring.
