Advisory

Tropical Storm Debby update as of 5:30 p.m., August 7, 2024

As of 5:30 p.m., today, August 7, 2024, Beaufort County is under the following watches and warnings: Tropical Storm Warning, Flood Warning, and Flood Watch.
 
Throughout the rest of today, we can expect to see tropical storm force winds. Additionally, 1 to 2 inches of rain is anticipated (dependent upon location). Due to saturated soil, additional rainfall and wind could down trees.
 
We continue to encourage you to stay off the roads unless you must travel. Please DO NOT drive through flooded roads. Remember that saying, “Turn around. Don’t drown”. You never know exactly how deep the flood waters are and they pose danger to you and your safety.
 
In the event you lose power, you can report that information to your power company.

  • Dominion Energy | Downed power lines or outages: 888-333-4465 | Gas leaks: 800-815-0083
  • Palmetto Electric Cooperative, Inc | Outages: 866-445-5551
Please report storm-related incidents, such as downed power lines, downed trees, and flooded roads, by calling our non-emergency dispatch line at 843-524-2777.
 
The Beaufort County Sheriff's Office will continue to update you with important information throughout Tropical Storm Debby and its impacts on our area.
 
Please note our offices will reopen for regular business tomorrow, August 8, 2024.
