FLORENCE COUNTY UNDER MANDATORY CURFEW
The remnants of Hurricane Debby continue to affect Florence County in the form of wind and rainfall as the storm moves through the area. While the storm has decreased in intensity, it still remains a threat to the citizens of Florence County. We can expect tropical storm winds through Thursday in addition to between 8 to 15 inches of rain. Some power outages, localized flooding, washed out or impassable roads and bridges are likely with the effects of the storm lasting through at least Friday morning.
Florence County Council has authorized the County Administrator, the Director of Emergency Management and Florence County Sheriff TJ Joye to impose a mandatory curfew if conditions warrant. As the danger of traveling during this storm increases exponentially at night, a county-wide curfew has been ordered from sundown to sunrise for all non-emergency activities beginning today. Exceptions to the curfew include essential public safety/medical employees and essential business and industry staff until further notice.
