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.

BREAK: CU of GA (06.26.24 CU OF GA FREE CHECKING_REV_FINAL)

STORY 1:State Operations Center up and running with Helene headed to Georgia

Governor Brian Kemp has activated the State Operations Center in Georgia as Hurricane Helene approaches, following a state of emergency declaration. Helene is expected to hit the Florida Panhandle as a Category 3 hurricane and move into Georgia, bringing strong winds, heavy rain, and flooding. Up to 500 National Guard troops are on standby for assistance, and commercial trucking regulations are relaxed to ensure supply flow. Georgia Power and EMCs are preparing for power outages, while the Department of Transportation advises against non-essential travel. Residents are warned to be cautious of potential storm-related scams.

STORY 2:KSU announces new beer for Owl fans

Kennesaw State University has teamed up with New Realm Brewing Company to launch OWL IN American Lager, a new university-branded beer. This collaboration debuts at the homecoming football game at Fifth Third Stadium. The beer, featuring KSU's black and gold colors and Owl emblem, is available year-round in select markets across Cobb County and Metro Atlanta. OWL IN is a 4% ABV light lager with a smooth hop blend, offering just 110 calories and nine carbs. This partnership aims to provide KSU fans with a flavorful, refreshing beer to enjoy during the fall sports season and beyond.

STORY 3:Ely steps away from Mount Paran

Mount Paran Christian has appointed Connie Arnold as interim head football coach for the rest of the season, following Coach Matt Ely's departure to address a personal matter. Ely, who also serves as assistant athletic director, has led the team to a 5-1 record this season. The school supports Ely during this time, though it's unclear if his leave is temporary or permanent. Arnold, a long-time staff member and current head wrestling coach, will lead the team, ensuring continuity and support for the players. The team is preparing for their upcoming game against Whitefield Academy.

Break: DRAKE (Drake Realty (Cobb County)

STORY 4:DNA Evidence Solves 34-Year-Old Cold Rape Case

A 34-year-old cold rape case has been solved with DNA evidence, leading to the conviction of Christopher Lee Milton for a 1990 assault in Cobb County. The case was revived after a 2016 Georgia law required unsubmitted rape kits to be tested, matching Milton's DNA in 2020. Arrested in 2021, Milton pled guilty to charges including aggravated assault and rape, receiving a 30-year sentence, with 13 years in prison. A permanent restraining order was also issued. The victim expressed forgiveness but emphasized Milton's need for punishment, stating her resilience and decision to reclaim her life.

STORY 5:North Georgia State Fair Closed Due to Weather

The Superior Plumbing North Georgia State Fair will be closed today due to inclement weather from Hurricane Helene. The National Weather Service has issued a tropical storm watch for Cobb County, anticipating Helene to become a Category 3+ hurricane. Cobb County could experience 6 to 10 inches of rain and wind gusts up to 65 mph. The fair prioritizes the safety of visitors, vendors, and staff and plans to reopen at Jim Miller Park on Friday at 4 p.m. For updates, check the fair's social media or website, and visit cobbcounty.org for storm information.
