Hurricane Sally Update

Date Posted: 09/16/2020

Jones County was spared from any significant impacts from Hurricane Sally. Thank goodness. Our neighbors in Alabama and Florida have not been so fortunate. Hurricane conditions, storm surge, and historic flooding are causing major issues for their residents. We lift them up in our prayers as they face some daunting days ahead.

If you prepared for Hurricane Sally then great job. Keep your supplies handy because we are still in the middle of hurricane season. Four tornadoes, a severe hailstorm, and a global pandemic this year have taught us that Jones County can be affected by disasters on an epic scale. We dodged a bullet this time, but prepared for the worst. A wise person once said, "If you err, then err on the side of caution." When it comes to making decisions about public safety, that's a very important point to remember.

We were blessed to be spared from Hurricane Sally. We may not be so fortunate next time. Plan. Prepare. Pray.
