Hurricane Season Begins June 1st, Be Prepared!
By Nicholas Connor
Atlantic Hurricane Season runs from June 1 through November 30 each year. It is no secret to South Florida residents that hurricanes are dangerous and can cause major damage. Storm surge, wind damage, and flooding can wreak havoc on property and pose major threats to people and pets. According to the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, the best way to minimize those risks is to be prepared.

Make an Emergency Plan
Make sure everyone in your household knows and understands your hurricane plans. Include the office, kids’ daycare, and anywhere else you frequent in your hurricane plans. Ensure your business has a continuity plan to continue operating when disaster strikes. Determine the best way to protect yourself, family, and pets in the event of a major storm.
Recognize Warnings and Alerts
Stay informed during a hurricane threat by monitoring news channels, and paying attention to emergency information and alerts. Download the FEMA app to receive real-time alerts from the National Weather Service.
Keep and Protect Important Documents
Make sure your insurance policies and personal documents are up to date. It is a good idea to have both digital and physical copies of these important documents, especially if you need to evacuate.
Make a Hurricane Kit
One of the best ways to prepare for a potential storm is to prepare a hurricane kit. A basic emergency supply kit could include: ▸ Water (3 Gallons Per Family Member) ▸ Non-Perishable Food (3 Days Worth) ▸ Battery-Powered Cell Phone Charger ▸ Noaa Weather Radio with Extra Batteries ▸ Flashlight with Extra Batteries ▸ First Aid Kit ▸ Whistle ▸ Package of Surgical Masks (To Filter Out Contaminated Air) ▸ Plastic Sheeting & Duct Tape ▸ Moist Towelettes ▸ Garbage Bags ▸ Prescription medications & glasses ▸ Pet food ▸ Personal hygiene items
