Many people are unaware that lightning can strike the ground as far as 25 miles away from its parent thunderstorm.

Planning a visit to a hurricane prone area this year? The threats from hurricanes to you and your family can vary widely depending on where you live or visit. It’s not just those along the Atlantic coast or Gulf of Mexico coast that can experience significant, life-threatening impacts. Eastern Pacific tropical cyclones sometimes create heavy rainfall impacts that can impact the southwest United States too. Evaluate what you may need to do to protect yourself and your family NOW, before the first storm of the season even forms. This week is Hurricane Preparedness Week across the country.
