Hurricane season can be a stressful time for Miami-Dade County’s residents and visitors. There are supplies to buy, emergency kits to prepare and contact lists to compile. With this in mind, residents can lessen the last-minute hassles by preparing now -- before a storm threatens.
This guide includes important information on how to develop your family’s disaster plan, prepare your home and boat for hurricane season, and creating a hurricane kit for your pets. You’ll even find a shopping list to take with you when you buy supplies – and supplies are crucial, since every resident should have provisions to last three days.
Hurricane season runs from June 1 to Nov. 30, so be ready! Let’s take action now to get ready for any storms that threaten our region.
Sincerely,
Carlos Alvarez
