How to Prepare for a Hurricane: The Ultimate Hurricane Supply List

Hurricane season is in full effect from the beginning of June through the end of November, with September typically being the most active month. Hurricanes can be extremely dangerous, bringing destructive winds exceeding 100 mph, heavy rainfall, flooding, and widespread power outages. 

Given the potential for severe weather during this time, it's important to prepare in advance by assembling a hurricane supply kit. A comprehensive tropical storm emergency kit will help ensure the safety and well-being of you and your family in the event of a hurricane. We recommend that you use our hurricane supply list as a starting point on how to prepare for a hurricane and then consider the specific needs of your household. Families with infants, seniors, or pets may require additional items not included in this hurricane supply list.
