Penn Township hurricane guide¶
Penn Township is in Cumberland County, inland, so the remains of tropical storms mainly mean flash and stream flooding. The township's Emergency Services page lists emergency contacts, and its Floodplain Information page explains the FEMA flood maps that took effect on September 7, 2023, and when a zoning permit is needed in a flood hazard area. See the Cumberland County page for county agencies.
