Meteorologists will highlight topics such as why you should never just focus on the category of a storm and why coastal residents should prepare every year for hurricanes.
“We have a lot of new people moving to our area each year while others have experienced many storms, as recently as Florence” said Warning Coordination Meteorologist Erik Heden. “Hurricane preparedness is something every resident should know about with our close proximity to the ocean.”
