Hurricane Survival Guide!

It’s been a long time since Hurricane Gloria back in 1985. Personally, other than losing a few trees, we had no real damage, but we were without power for a week.

With Hurricane Earl at least coming close to the South Country Area on Friday, we want to share with you the Hurricane Survival Guide prepared by Senator Foley that we just received. It contains “preparations and procedures for virtually every hurricane scenario. The guide also contains hurricane surge maps which are useful in understanding how different areas might be impacted by hurricanes of varying intensity. Also within this guide are important phone numbers, lists, tips and tear sheets for use at home and at work.”

In addition, we are providing a link to additional “Storm Surge” information and the location of Emergency Shelters in the area.

We urge you to take a look and print out a copy of Senator Foley’s Hurricane Survival Guide for reference. If Bellport.com receives additional information that we think needs to be shared with you, we’ll be sure to pass it along.
