Courtland hurricane guide¶
Courtland is an inland town in Lawrence County, far from the coast, so the main dangers when the remains of a tropical storm move through are heavy rain, flash flooding, and high winds. The town's website has no hurricane or flood guidance beyond its county's information, so use the agencies on the Lawrence County page for emergency management, alerts, and shelters.
