Federal disaster declarations that list Calhoun County
Hurricane Helene (FEMA EM-3618, hurricane) was declared on September 26, 2024, and FEMA lists Calhoun County among the designated areas. The record gives incident dates of September 22, 2024 to September 29, 2024. Wind, surge, and long power loss can close a commercial kitchen for days, and a facility could keep the cooking line, range, and ovens running and serve meals onsite from a mobile commercial kitchen trailer rental while repairs run. Add a dishwashing trailer rental for the dish room, and a refrigerated trailer rental if the walk-in fails. Facilities near Weaver face the same weather.
