TCC hurricane update noon Monday 9-9-24


Hello all. We are closely watching developments with Francine. The current 24-hour forecast is calling for 1-3 feet of storm surge and 6-8" of rain with tropical force winds beginning Tuesday. How long the power stays on is anyone's guess. If the south side floods as predicted it will bring water in to nearly the pool. If that happens, we will need to shut down septic to the south side to save the 3 pumps from burning out. Should we need to turn off the pumps, water to the south side will also be turned off to keep the lines clear from each camper. The big unknown is what the situation will be with power. If we lose power to the whole campground, water will be shut off until power is restored.

Unless you have a pressing reason to be in camp, please stay home until the storm passes. More updates will follow this one as the situation unfolds.
