Are you prepared for North Carolina’s bad weather and natural disasters?
FEMA’s public service announcement campaign, Ready, has designated September to be Natural Preparedness Month in the U.S. This campaign is spreading the word about the ways Americans can better prepare themselves for both man-made and natural disasters. Each week of the month is dedicated to preparing you for a specific disaster that could happen in your home or business.
What are the themes for all of the weeks, you ask?
Week 1: Flood
Week 2: Wildfire
Week 3: Hurricane
Week 4: Power Outage
