“It’s vital, especially during hurricane season, that we look out for one another in our community,” said Commissioner Edmonson. “These hurricane kits should give some of our District 3 seniors the basic tools they need to prepare in the event of a major natural disaster.”

According to forecasters from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, there is a 70 percent chance of having nine to 14 named storms this hurricane season, of which four to seven could become hurricanes, including one to three major hurricanes (Category 3, 4 or 5).
