For Immediate Release:
As a service to the public and in an effort to improve weather monitoring in the county, Sheriff Terry Langley is proud to announce that the Carroll County Sheriff’s Office now has its own weather monitoring station, located at 1000 Newnan Rd., Carrollton. Having a centrally located weather monitoring station allows the Carroll County Sheriff’s Office Emergency Management Agency to have its own data, which we can provide to the National Weather Service in Peachtree City to use in forecasting and to local residents as well, with the equipment being checked and maintained in house by the Carroll County Sheriff’s Office IT Division.
