Watch - Conditions are favorable for the severe weather event in or near the watch area. When a watch is announced, stay alert and be ready to take action. Warning - Severe weather event is imminent or occurring in the warned area. Take action based on the emergency at hand.

Please stay safe in the forecasted weather that we have coming our way. If you haven't see this and you happen to need emergency shelter during or after the storm Gordon County Emergency Services just released this info: (Calhoun) – Hurricane Helene continues to gain strength in the Gulf of Mexico and is moving north toward Georgia. Due to this storm system, Gordon County is under a Tropical Storm Warning and Flash Flood Watch into Friday afternoon. With that in mind, Crane Eater Community Church located at 3168 Red Bud Road NE in Calhoun has reached out to Gordon County Emergency Management to offer their gym as a temporary shelter to those who may need somewhere to go to get out of the storm and into shelter. This location will supply a space along with somewhere to sit or lay down, relax and stay overnight. Food to include light snacks, coffee and water will also be made available. This temporary shelter will be opened today at 5 p.m. through Friday at 1 p.m. Listed times of operation must be adhered to. Also, anyone with small pets can bring them as well as long as they have a portable kennel and supply their own pet food. All those that seek shelter at this location will be expected to respect the location, the volunteers and others that seek shelter there. Anyone who cannot act accordingly or who damages the property will be asked to leave.
