As we approach the peak of hurricane season, it’s crucial to stay vigilant and prepared, especially here in Hawaii and on the island of Kauai. Currently, we are monitoring Hurricane Gilma and another tropical depression. While these storms are still over a week away from potentially impacting our islands, it’s never too early to prepare.
Now is the time to review your emergency plan, stock up on essential supplies, and ensure your home is storm-ready. Secure loose outdoor items, check your hurricane shutters, and make sure you have enough non-perishable food, water, and medications to last at least 7-10 days.
Stay informed by monitoring local weather updates and follow any advisories from state and local officials. Remember, the best way to protect yourself and your loved ones is to be proactive. Let’s stay safe together as we keep an eye on the weather in the coming days.
