Hurricane Preparedness

Emergency Management and Operations Centers across the Southeast urged residents to evacuate and prepare ahead of Hurricane Irma. Did you know the best time to prepare your tropical storm/hurricane supply kit is before hurricane season, which starts on June 1st? You do not want to be under the pressure and stress of making these decisions when a tropical storm or hurricane threatens your area.
