* Secure outdoor furniture, grills, plants, and decorations.
* Trim loose or dead branches near your home.
* Photograph your home and belongings for insurance documentation.
* Keep important documents in a waterproof container.
🎒 BUILD YOUR HURRICANE KIT

🏠 IF YOU ARE STAYING HOME
Stay indoors and away from windows during the storm. Keep your emergency supplies accessible, monitor official weather information, and never use a generator indoors, in a garage, or near doors/windows.
🚨 IF YOU ARE ORDERED TO EVACUATE
GO! Don’t wait until conditions become dangerous. Follow official evacuation instructions, take your emergency kit, secure your property, and let family members know where you are going.
