Dear friend, 

Hurricane season is upon us. Tropical Storm Debby made landfall on the western coast of Florida and is rapidly approaching Central Virginia. I urge you to prepare with the necessary tools, resources, and information to keep you and your loved ones safe this hurricane season. 

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration has tools and resources available to help you effectively prepare for hurricane season. Additional resources are available through the Virginia Department of Emergency Management and the Virginia Department of Health. You should also monitor the National Weather Service's Weather Forecast Office in Wakefield for timely weather updates. 

Make a plan today to protect you and your loved ones!

Have you taken the proper steps to protect your loved ones during hurricane season?
