Carnesville Fire Dept Offers List of Important Numbers During a Weather Event

With the possibility of sleet and ice today the Carnesville Fire Department has listed on their FB page phone numbers and other tips in the event of a power outage or emergency.

Because of the chance for icy roads, accidents, and power outages emergency services in Franklin and Hart counties are all hands on deck through at least Saturday.

If you need to call for help, here’s who to call:

For hazardous road conditions, trees down in the roadway, etc: Call 911

For downed power lines call 911 and the electric company, either Hart EMC or Georgia Power.

For phone outages whether cell or landline, call your phone service provider.

If you use propane and you run out or the tank isn’t working properly call your propane provider.

DO NOT call 911 unless you have an emergency. DO NOT call them if your power goes out or lose cell phone or landline service or if you need propane.
