Hurricane Helene is forecasted to make landfall along Florida’s Big Bend region which will create local impacts for Charleston Thursday night and early Friday morning. Expect 1-3” of rainfall with sustained wind between 20-30 mph and gusts between 40-60 mph. Town Police and Fire Rescue will be fully staffed throughout the weather event. Staff will provide a follow-up notification if any delays are expected in the opening of Town Hall on Friday.

Items for you to consider:

  • Sand bags are available at the Sullivan’s Island Fire Station. Sand is available at Quarter Street.
  • Continue to review your family hurricane plan.
  • Monitor local media outlets for the most current storm updates.
