WHILE it is unlikely a Hurricane storm surge would flood Pooler, Georgia – the city would not be completely safe... were a major storm to hit the coastline near the Savannah River. Current storm prediction maps show the potential for some flood damage in the area.

Warning!

Never use any Web site to make life or death decisions if a major storm is approaching. ALWAYS heed the advice of local authorities. This Web site is for informational purposes only.

That said, we could still suffer wind damage and possibly some flooding – even as far from the coast, as Pooler. The buttons below take you to the area's best resources for storm preparedness and emergency response information.

HURRICANE PREPAREDNESS: Many of us are aware of the requirement to prepare for the possible arrival of a Hurricane in the local area. In the event of an evacuation, where will you go? What do you do with animals? What type & how much food should you have? How do you get back to your house once the storm has passed? What should you be prepared for when you return?
