The 2013 hurricane season is here. You should have your disaster preparedness kit and have a plan to
keep your family safe. Is your insurance coverage adequate? Those
living near the coast should be familiar with the applicable evacuation
routes. Everyone needs to take personal responsibility for yourself,
your family and your pets. By making proper preparations, you will
allow the first responders to focus on helping the most vulnerable
residents.
I have posted several important links below for hurricane / Disaster
Preparedness information from FEMA, Miami-Dade County, Cutler Bay,
Pinecrest and Palmetto Bay in one location for you. There is also
information on how to register with
Miami-Dade Alerts, a wireless emergency alerting system. Register for
this free service and receive local weather and hurricane alerts to
your computer or cell phone.
