Hurricane season runs through November 30

Everyone needs to be prepared for the unexpected, and while we can always hope for the best, we must prepare for the worst. 

Take advantage of calmer times to stock up on your supplies and gather your disaster kit. Next, plan ahead. Before storm season gets underway, review your insurance policy, trim trees around your home and create an evacuation plan that includes arrangements for your pets. Know your Storm Surge Evacuation Planning Zone. Finally, stay informed. Be sure you know where to find the most accurate real-time information before, during and after a storm.
