Groton hurricane guide¶
Groton is an inland town in Grafton 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 emergency information page covers the state's NH 911 CARES registry and has no hurricane or flood guidance, so use the agencies on the Grafton County page for emergency management, alerts, and shelters.
