We will be reposting the NWS infographics and Public Information Statements this week for Southern New England Hurricane Preparedness Week. From NWS - "It only takes one storm to change your life and community. hurricanes.gov/prepare #HurricanePrep #HurricaneStrong" #mawx #riwx #ctwx

Ah, the noble pursuit of reverse-engineering the syrupy secrets of a #breakfast chain 🤦‍♂️. When hurricane-prepping in Florida, why not risk a legal storm instead? Better hope Waffle House doesn't serve subpoenas with their hash browns. 🥞📜🍳

If you can pick it up, so can the wind. And the wind can throw it a lot harder and a lot farther than you ever could. All loose objects should be cleaned up and stored inside well before the storm approaches.

Put up your storm shutters, barricades, and/or sandbags now, today. Milton will apparently be pushing lots of rain ahead of it and conditions tomorrow may be difficult.

You will lose power. Try to keep your electronics plugged in as much as possible, so that when power does go out you will be fully charged. Make sure all your backup power supplies are fully charged. Test your generator/battery/solar fail over. Generator fuel supply secure?

Filling a bathtub with water is not a bad idea. If water does go out, you have an extra supply for flushing toilets or drinking (after boiling).

How am I going to boil water if the power is out? Too late to get one now, but a propane stove is helpful to have in your hurricane kit (along with a supply of propane). Once it is safe outside, you can boil water and have hot meals.

It's so very important that @SabiLewSounds & family and so many others out there have shelter, supplies and a means of evacuation, at times like this.

Please help get the hotel past due covered and afford supplies, food and gas.

Please everyone share, boost, help!! Not just for Sabi, but for everyone in harm's way!!

Here’s how I avoid buying plastic bottles of water when a hurricane gets close. Don’t buy bottled water before a hurricane. #hurricane #hurricaneidalia #hurricaneprep

#HurricanePrep items for today: 1. Pick up small debris items in yard (way too many bits of projects out there, LOL) 2. Remove shade covers from garden 3. Charge batteries.

Thanks for joining us for Hurricane Preparedness Week! 6/1 is the official start of the Atlantic Hurricane Season, but NOW is the time to get prepared. Don’t wait for a storm to approach -- by then it could be too late. #HurricanePrep #HurricaneStrong https://weather.gov/hurricane

Putting together hurricane supplies doesn't have to be expensive. You probably have a lot of things you can use already on hand! For those items still needed, many can be purchased at a dollar store.

#HurricanePrep

Armar suministros para una tormenta no tiene ser costoso. ¡Probablemente ya tengas a mano muchas cosas que puedes usar! Para aquellos artículos que aún se necesitan, muchos se pueden comprar en una tienda de dólar.

#HurricanePrep

Make sure you have multiple ways to receive warnings during a hurricane, including some that will work without power. Some ways include:
💻 Computer (with battery backup)
📻 Radio (battery power or hand crank)
📱 Cell phone (with solar power charger)

🌀Hurricanes and tropical storms can cause widespread outages, and sometimes power can remain out for days.
💡BUT you have the power to keep yourself and your loved ones safe by remembering these safety tips!
#HurricanePrep #HurricaneStrong #gawx

After a hurricane or tropical storm has passed, that doesn't mean the danger is over. Even if the sun🌞is out and the sky is blue, there could still be live powerlines down, hazards under the flood waters, and oppressive heat. #HurricanePrep #HurricaneStrong #gawx

If you plan on using a generator should you lose power after a storm, be sure to use it safely with these tips. Many post-hurricane fatalities are due to carbon monoxide poisoning from improper generator use. #hurricaneprep #hurricanesafety

Torrential rainfall from tropical cyclones can lead to flooding across inland areas that can last for over a week. Do you know what to do if you encounter a flooded road? TURN AROUND, DON'T DROWN! 🌧🌀
#HurricanePrep #HurricaneStrong

Lluvias torrenciales producidas por ciclones tropicales pueden ocasionar inundaciones en áreas del interior. ¿Sabe usted qué hacer si se encuentra con una carretera inundada? 🌧 🌀 ¡DÉ LA VUELTA, NO SE AHOGUE!
#HurricanePrep #HurricaneStrong

🌊Flood waters can linger long after a tropical system has passed. Be sure to stay out of these flood waters if you have to go out. Debris from the storm, power lines⚡️, dangerous chemicals☣️, and animals🐍 could all be waiting underneath!

#ALwx #FloodSafety Pro-Tips:

👣 Watch your step! Floodwaters often hide sharp and dangerous debris like broken glass & shards of metal!

🔌 Do not go into a room where water covers the electrical outlets or where cords are submerged

📌#HurricanePrep

🌬️Strong winds in tropical storms and (especially) hurricanes can bring trees🌲down onto homes and other structures.
When a storm moves through, stay safe by moving to an interior room of a sturdy structure. #HurricanePrep #HurricaneStrong #gawx
