Hurricane Florence: Are You Prepared?

Hurricane Florence: Are You Prepared?

Don’t wait – put together your emergency supplies now!

Are You Prepared For Dorian? Here’s What You Need To Know.

NC 2-1-1:

  • All NC residents can dial 2-1-1 to reach a trained call specialist who can help them find shelters and learn evacuation routes, find help with storm clean-up, locate food, water and ice, learn about volunteer needs and more. The service is available 24/7 and is available in English and Spanish. Visit NC211.org.

Ready NC:

  • Visit ReadyNC.org for information on how to prepare for the storm. Download their free app to learn weather conditions, traffic conditions, shelters, evacuations, and more.

Hurricane Resources:

  • National Hurricane Center Storm Tracking
  • National Hurricane Center Preparedness
  • NC Disaster Information Center

Make a Disaster Kit

Prepare for the storm by creating a Disaster Kit or making an emergency plan.

Some items to prepare are:

  • Water: Buy plenty of bottled water to keep on hand or fill your own bottles
  • Food: Stock up on nonperishable food such as canned foods, peanut butter, granola bars
  • Food Prep: Keep Charcoal, Wood (for the fireplace) or Gas (for a gas grill) on hand in case of power outages
  • Ice: Freeze a gallon jug of water to keep your refrigerator or freezer cool in the case of a power outage. Can’t find water jugs? Fill gallon ziplock bags and freeze them. Not only will your food stay cool, you can drink the water too!
  • Clothing and Bedding: Remember that your air conditioner or furnace may be out if the power is out. Have appropriate clothing and bedding available for high or low temperatures
  • First Aid Kit: Make sure your First Aid Kit is easily accessible and stocked
  • Batteries: Stock up on batteries for radios and flashlights

Learn more on Disaster Kits via ReadyNC.org or via NC Disaster Information Center
