Staying informed is one of the most important steps you can take to protect yourself, your family and your home during hurricane season. With severe weather becoming more unpredictable, having access to live, local and trustworthy news is essential.

When is Hurricane Season & What you Need to Know to Prepare
In the US, hurricane season runs from June to November with peak activity typically between August and October. Coastal states along the Atlantic and Gulf Coast are most at risk but hurricanes can also cause widespread flooding, power outages and emergency situations far inland.
- Create a Hurricane Emergency Kit that includes essentials like water, non-perishable food, flashlights, batteries, and a phone charger.
- Know Your Evacuation Zone and follow your local government website or local news station to understand your risk and routes.
- Stay Informed With Local News as weather conditions change quickly. Local stations provide live coverage, evacuation orders, and shelter information. NewsON is a great tool that gives you access to live local coverage from multiple local stations in one place.
