The 2021 Atlantic Hurricane Season begins June 1

Are your home and family ready for the next major storm impact? FEMA recommends knowing your evacuation route, gathering supplies and making an emergency plan, among other steps. Experts agree that following an electrical outage is a poor time to discover your battery shortage.

The National Hurricane Center predicts an active season and began issuing forecasts for the Atlantic basin earlier than usual on May 15, so Floridians should take heed and prepare now.

Florida’s annual hurricane supplies sales tax holiday runs from May 28 through June 6 this year, so unleash your inner prepper, take stock and plan accordingly.
