Regional Hurricane Preparedness
With the start of hurricane season, the City of Edinburg, in conjunction with Hidalgo County and the cities of McAllen, Mission, Pharr, and Weslaco, hosted a Joint Regional Hurricane Preparedness Press Conference on Friday, May 31, at Edinburg City Hall.
The multi-jurisdictional collaboration provided residents with crucial information about their cities’ disaster response plans, past experiences, and available resources before and after a major storm event strikes.
Recommendations include stocking up on non-perishable foods, water, and necessary medications, having a first-aid kit readily available, and ensuring generators are working properly beforehand.
