If we can learn anything from hurricane season this year, it’s to be prepared for anything and everything. With Helene and Milton hitting the southeast hard, fires breaking out along the west coast, and so many other natural disasters, you never know when something will impact you.

It doesn’t matter where you live. There’s always the potential for danger.

The electrical grid, in particular, is one of our biggest vulnerabilities as a country. We leave you with this video:
