TS Debby — Day Two

After­noon All!

Day two of Deb­by and most of us woke up to water­front prop­er­ty that we didn’t want!   Noth­ing much has changed in Debby’s path or expec­ta­tions.   I’ve attached a cou­ple of graph­ics from the SCEMD call this morn­ing that I thought you may find interesting….the rain­fall amounts received by 7 am this morn­ing, the time­line for the expect­ed winds, and the storm track­er.

A cou­ple of good for-the-cause notes:

  • They are fore­cast­ing an addi­tion­al 10” of rain and sus­tained winds of 39+mph pos­si­ble between now and Thurs­day.
  • The offices were dry last night but the pond we gained in the back lot was impres­sive.  Please keep your wake to a min­i­mum so water doesn’t rush into the shop or garage.
  • No plans to open a call cen­ter or close the office at this time.  Phones will be trans­ferred to CRC this after­noon just as they always are.  This will be reassessed ear­ly tomor­row (Wed.).
  • The only areas evac­u­at­ed in Col­leton Coun­ty at this time are around the McGrady Dam area of Cane Branch Road.
  • There are no shel­ters open at this time in Col­leton Coun­ty.   Sur­round­ing coun­ties have some open.  Click Here to view those.
  • Should the coun­ty decide to enact a cur­few, down­load the reen­try form for the coop­er­a­tive below.   Should these mea­sures be put into play, print­ed copies will be pro­vid­ed for you to place in your vehi­cle. Show­ing this email attach­ment to law enforce­ment in the inter­im should suf­fice.

Great job to oper­a­tions today and lead­ing up to today for min­i­mal out­ages and a quick recov­ery.   If any­one has pic­tures they would like to share of dam­ages or crews in the field please send them my way.

Get some rest this evening and stay safe!
