Carroll County officials following Hurricane Sandy's path, BGE urges preparation

Storm expected to impact area from Sunday to Tuesday


Officials for Carroll County Emergency Operations said Thursday they are monitoring the projected path of Hurricane Sandy, and that weather models from the National Weather Service indicate the hurricane will strike land somewhere between New York and Maryland — impacting the area Sunday evening, and perhaps lasting through as Tuesday.

Officials said high winds and rain are expected and may cause some flooding and power outages.

During the storm, the county will post weather related information on various county websites and social media outlets, and will also communicate with the media.
