Hurricane Season runs through November 30th. As a Floridian, it’s imperative to be prepared during hurricane season. The majority of significant storms happen in August and September so take action now to prepare yourself. It is essential to know that after a hurricane hits "the first 72 are on you" meaning you need to be prepared with enough supplies for at least 72 hours as it may be that long or longer before help can arrive.
