Entry bubble Hurricanes & National Emergency Preparedness

By: Jake | September 01, 2008 | Category: Home and Family

I really hope you are having a happy Labor Day Weekend!

Unfortunately, many of you are riding out Hurricane Gustav or preparing for Tropical Storm Hanna. You can track the storms and check out government emergency information at USA.gov and Ready.gov. If there is any information you need that you don't see, please let me know in the comments and I'll try to find it for you.Hurricane Cloud

Those of you not in the storms' paths should think about how you might prepare for emergencies in your hometown. President Bush declared September National Preparedness Month in order to create a culture of emergency preparedness in the U.S.

The Department of Homeland Security's Ready Campaign sponsors the event and encourages all Americans to take four steps to prepare.

What have you already done to prepare for emergencies like the hurricane and other storms?

I must say I thank the gov for doing better than Katrina. Very good job. Keep up the good work, you're not done yet.
