Be Prepared North Carolina-Get a PLAN
6/4/2018 (Permalink)
In 2017, many regions suffered through nightmarish scenarios from multiple hurricanes. Your local North Carolina government says that you should not only have an emergency plan for disasters, but a plan for hurricane evacuations.
Evacuation plans should include what route you will take, what vehicles you will use, and where you will stay.
Your local emergency management has the ability to send emergency alerts to residents, visitors and property owners via text, email, and over the phone.
What Your Should Know, What You Should Do Outer Banks
"Hurricanes cause high winds, tornadoes and landslides, but their deadliest hazard is flooding. Tropical storms and depressions can be just as dangerous."
Your local planning department can help you to determine the flood zone of your property or obtain information on historical flooding in your neighborhood.
