Atlantic Hurricane Season
The official Atlantic hurricane season begins on June 1st and runs through November 30th, however activity typically peaks from mid-August through October. States along the Gulf Coast, including Mississippi, are particularly vulnerable to all hazards associated with tropical cyclones. For this reason, Governor Tate Reeves, the Mississippi Emergency Management Agency’s Executive Director Gregory Michel and the National Weather Service urge Mississippians to prepare for the upcoming hurricane season by creating an action plan for you and your family.
Personal hurricane plans should be designed in a way that allows you to take quick action when a storm is approaching. The key is to build a plan based on your level of vulnerability, which is determined by factors such as proximity to the coast and your area’s flood risk.
Ultimately, your plan will help answer questions like: Where will I go in the case of an evacuation? What will I need to take with me? How will I protect my home from the storm? This guide contains important information about tropical systems and their hazards, ways to prepare for this type of natural disaster and how to respond when the threat of a hurricane or tropical storm is imminent.
