Hurricane and Tropical

Storm Preparation

Adequate preparation for a hurricane or tropical storm is vital for the safety and comfort of your household. To help aid in preparedness, we’ve put together an interactive list that covers common preparation steps and materials. Keep in mind that each situation is unique — items on this list may or may not be applicable to your particular needs.

How to use this site: Read the contents of each section below. Once you have considered or accomplished the preparation steps inside of a section, check the checkbox at the top — in the section’s title bar. This will update the progress bar and navigation, providing an estimation of your preparedness. A warning: since this site does not collect your data, refreshing this page will remove all progress.
