5 Steps to Hurricane Preparedness Infographic

Insurance: Flood insurance is separate from homeowners or renters’ insurance. It protects your home and belongings from overflowing surface water.

Home Safety: Protect your home by covering windows and doors with tape/boards to prevent flooding and glass shattering.

Evacuation Plan: Learn about your local warning systems, evacuation routes and nearby hurricane shelters.

Supplies: Your supply kit should have essentials like a first aid kit, food and water. Regularly update your stockpile!

Official Alerts: Your community leaders and FEMA’s flood maps will give you information on safe places to travel.
