Dear John,

As Hurricane Ian moves closer to South Carolina, I wanted to send you a note to make sure you are safe and prepared for the upcoming storm. 

Please heed all instructions from Governor Henry McMaster and your local authorities. You can access the South Carolina Hurricane guide here: https://hurricane.sc/

You can find information about determining which room in your home is the designated safe room here: https://www.fema.gov/emergency-managers/risk-management/safe-rooms

Please visit the National Hurricane Center website for information on potential storm surge areas. 

Again, please take all precautions necessary. Hurricane Ian is very powerful and will bring heavy wind, torrential rain and potentially tornadoes to South Carolina. 

I pray that you and your loved ones stay safe. Please be careful. 

God bless, 

Tim Scott
