Cobb Residents Advised to Shelter as Helene Floods Roads

Cobb County is under a state of emergency as Tropical Storm Helene has caused significant flooding, closing multiple roadways and prompting several flood warnings for areas like Noonday Creek and the Chattahoochee River. Notable road closures include Woodland Brook Drive, Riverside Parkway, and parts of I-75 North. Cobb County Fire & Emergency Services emphasizes, "TURN AROUND, DON'T DROWN," urging residents not to travel. The storm, downgraded from a Category 4 hurricane, still poses dangers with wind speeds up to 70 mph. Cobb's Emergency Management Agency advises against wading in storm water and warns that even six inches of water can be hazardous. Emergency crews have conducted multiple water rescues, and essential workers are actively responding to the crisis. Chairwoman Lisa Cupid has declared a state of emergency, advising residents, particularly in flood-prone areas, to consider relocating for safety. All non-essential county services remain closed until further notice.
