Hurricane Irma - Sept. 6 10:00 A.M. Update

Irma remains a deadly hurricane.

At this point in its history, most tracking models show Irma interacting with the U.S. Exactly where that first contact will occur is still unknown. At this point what is known is that contact with the South Carolina coast is still a viable possibility.

Remain alert to this storm. Make preparations now, so that IF the storm does head our way, and IF an evacuation order is given, you are not running around taking care of business at the last moment.

If you do not have a plan, we recommend that you visitwww.ready.gov which offers good advice on how to prepare for a hurricane. The storm is still far enough out that you do have time to effectively prepare for it, should it head this way.

IF an evacuation is ordered in the future (none has been ordered at this time), the order will refer to Zones. If you are not familiar with the Zone in which you reside in Horry County or North Myrtle Beach, you can access the information via this link:https://tinyurl.com/y9nj6mlbIf the link does not work for your, visitwww.HorryCounty.org.

As we learn more, we will post information that pertains to our area on www.nmb.us, Facebook/cityofnmb and Twitter @cityofnmb. We will also continue to use our Email News Groups.
