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 https://x.com/NWSAtlanta/status/2052818314334732450

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 https://x.com/NWSAtlanta/status/2052765472156737892

A key part of hurricane preparedness is understanding the dangers that remain well after a storm. You can play a large role in how your neighbors fare before, during and after a hurricane. #HurricanePrep #HurricaneStrong http://noaa.gov/use-caution-after-storms https://x.com/NWSAtlanta/status/2052720177750683879

Be prepared for hurricane season by knowing what to do during a storm. Whether you’ve evacuated or are sheltering in place, know what to expect from the hazards you may face. #HurricanePrep #HurricaneStrong http://noaa.gov/stay-protected-during-storms https://x.com/NWSAtlanta/status/2052403087155843128

Tornadoes can accompany landfalling tropical cyclones. These tornadoes typically occur in rain bands well away from the center of the storm. Be prepared, know your safe location, and be ready to act quickly if a tornado is approaching. #HurricanePrep #HurricaneStrong https://x.com/NWSAtlanta/status/2052153938531746230

If a Hurricane or Tropical Storm is threatening your area, always make sure that you’re up to date with the latest Watch and Warning information from your local NWS forecast office. #HurricanePrep #HurricaneStrong https://x.com/NWSAtlanta/status/2052070888959291429

Do you know what to do when a storm threatens? Prepare for hurricane season by taking the time now to understand the actions needed when time is of the essence. #HurricanePrep #HurricaneStrong http://noaa.gov/get-moving-when-storm-threatens https://x.com/NWSAtlanta/status/2051995396139110417

Even far away from the coast, heavy rainfall can remain a major concern as a tropical system moves inland. Large, slow moving tropical storms or hurricanes (like Alberto 1994 or Harvey 2017) are the greatest threat to produce catastrophic flooding. #HurricanePrep #HurricaneStrong https://x.com/NWSAtlanta/status/2051738706113925412

Prepare for hurricane season by knowing how to understand forecasts. They can tell you a lot about what is expected, including the storm’s path, rainfall amounts, wind speeds, and more. #HurricanePrep #HurricaneStrong http://noaa.gov/understand-forecast-information https://x.com/NWSAtlanta/status/2051633011385356413

Can your home withstand a hurricane? Make sure it is up to local hurricane building code specifications. Remember, the garage door is the most vulnerable part of the home, so it must be able to withstand high winds. #HurricanePrep #HurricaneStrong https://x.com/NWSAtlanta/status/2051338563334361446

The best time to prepare for hurricanes is BEFORE hurricane season begins. Avoid having to rush through potentially life-saving preparations by waiting until it’s too late. #HurricanePrep #HurricaneStrong http://noaa.gov/prepare-before-hurricane-season https://x.com/NWSAtlanta/status/2051270619631939807

No two tropical systems are the same. While it is important to know how strong the winds in a storm will be, they can also threaten life and property with storm surge, flooding from heavy rainfall, and tornadoes embedded within the storm. #HurricanePrep #HurricaneStrong #gawx https://x.com/NWSAtlanta/status/2051044127337566570

The first step of preparing for hurricanes is to know your risk. Hurricanes are not just a coastal problem, so find out today what types of water and wind hazards could happen where YOU live #HurricanePrep #HurricaneStrong http://noaa.gov/know-your-risk-water-wind https://x.com/NWSAtlanta/status/2050968631312331240

To close off this year’s Hurricane Awareness Week, let’s take a look at the tropical cyclone names for the Atlantic basin for 2023. Stay tuned and be prepared this season, as a tropical cyclone gets a name once it reaches tropical storm strength! #HurricanePrep #HurricaneStrong
