A friend of mine, Barbara Nixon, messaged me today and suggested we set up a twitter account where we could update people on Hurricane Hanna as it relates to Savannah, Georgia.
Obviously I thought it was a great idea and set up twitter.com/savannahhanna
There are rumors of an evacuation starting as early as Wednesday so if nothing else this Twitter page will reflect some basic knowledge and updates that may reach a population of people not reached by traditional means. I have already had one person mention that they didn’t even know there was a threat until she read our Twitter page.
Please feel free to spread the word to anyone living in the Savannah, Georgia area and if you are curious to follow this social media outreach and contribute any news we may be missing please start following us here.
