The latest data from the Georgia Department of Public Health shows that the threat of COVID-19 transmission in Chattooga County has been reduced from “high” to “medium”. That’s good news as it is the first time in several weeks that the threat level has gone down.
Chattooga County will see cooler and dryer weather this week. After a slight chance of showers today, there is no mention of rain in the seven-day forecast all the way through the weekend. That’s good news as the area continues to dry out and deal with the affects of the Labor Day Weekend Flood.
Chattooga County Young Farmer Director Lauren Jarrett says farmers in Chattooga County that received damage from the Labor Day Weekend Flood should contact the local USDA Farm Service Agency office to report damage.
The Summerville City Council will hold their regular meeting for the month of September coming up this evening at 5 PM at Summerville City Hall. You can find a complete agenda and instructions on how to attend the meeting virtually below:

Two female jail inmates were recently found with methamphetamine inside the Floyd County Jail.
