Hurricane Preparedness

Hurricanes have been called the "greatest storms on earth" because of their size and potential destruction. A hurricane can produce a devastating combination of storm surge, powerful winds, tornadoes, and torrential rains. Leading experts have warned us that the lull in hurricane activity is ending as climate cycles change. Recent hurricanes like Ike have reemphasized the need for everyone - families, businesses, agencies, and institutions - to be prepared.
