The official Atlantic hurricane season runs from June 1st to November 30th , are you prepared?
Disasters like hurricanes and wildfires can strike with little warning. Now’s the time to prepare your family by assembling an emergency supplies kit and reviewing your plan.
As the temperatures rise, it’s crucial to keep cool safely! Remember, air conditioners should always be plugged directly into wall outlets to prevent fire hazards.
Avoid using extension cords or plug strips for major appliances.
