Preparing for a Hurricane...


The most important thing that should be done before, during, and after a hurricane is to prepare! Beforehand, people should create first-aid kits, as well as creating food and supply kits. Other things that can be done prior to a hurricane are as follows: cleaning debris from our yards, purchasing and installing storm shutters, cleaning out storm drains, among other things. During a hurricane, we can prepare ourselves for the aftermath by remaining calm and indoors, out of harms way. And, after a hurricane, we must stay calm and collected, and properly utilize the contents in our food and supply kits.

Additionally, if told to evacuate, please do!! Do not wait to leave until it is too late. Authorities would not ask you to leave your home if they did not believe that you were in pertinent danger.
