🚨 WEATHER UPDATE – ALL CLEAR 🚨

Chambers County Emergency Services received notification earlier today of a reported tornado sighting in the Old River/Cove area. Out of an abundance of caution, a ChambersWarns notification was issued countywide, as well as the outdoor warning siren, to help ensure residents were aware of the potential threat.

We have received numerous reports that some individuals received the same notification multiple times. We are aware of the issue and will be researching the system to determine the cause of the apparent glitch.

Deputies and first responders have since canvassed the area and are no longer able to locate the reported tornado, indicating that it has dissipated. At this time, the immediate threat has passed and the situation is ALL CLEAR.

As weather conditions can change rapidly, we encourage everyone to continue monitoring local forecasts and remain weather aware throughout the day.

Thank you to our first responders, law enforcement personnel, and residents who helped report information and stay vigilant.
