🏘️ FEMA Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Representatives are visiting door-to-door in Horsham Township! They will be making their way through the storm-damaged areas of the township over the next few days informing residents that they may qualify for individual assistance for emergency work and repair or replacement of homes damaged by Ida's remnants from August 31 - September 5, 2021.

📝 The FEMA reps will be walking through neighborhoods, handing out literature, helping residents apply for assistance, and answering any questions they may have.

🚪 If you are not home when FEMA representatives come through your neighborhood, do not worry! They will leave an informational flyer at your home, and you have until November 10 to register with FEMA for disaster assistance in Pennsylvania.

⚠️ Please remain alert, as this is a prime opportunity for scammers to go through neighborhoods pretending to be FEMA reps. ALL FEMA reps carry an identification badge with a photograph. A FEMA shirt or jacket alone is not proof of identity.

Please help us get the word out by sharing this post on your page......

If we get the rain from Ida we are expecting, you can rest assured that certain roads will be closed due to flooding here in Horsham and in surrounding municipalities.

Motorists are warned not to drive across roads covered with water because even shallow, swiftly flowing water can wash a car from a roadway. Also, the roadbed may not be intact under the water. And never ever drive around barricades or signs on closed roads – Turn Around, Don't Drown.

Fines for going around a barricade are $250; if emergency responders need to perform a water rescue or have a vehicle towed, the fine increases to $500 plus two points on the driver's license. But that's far from the worst that can happen.

Anyone planning to travel tomorrow should closely monitor weather conditions along travel routes. We will do our best to keep our page updated on closed roads here in Horsham. Be safe friends.
