Francine to Bring Flooding, Strong Winds, and Tornado Threat
Preparing for the Storm
Hurricane Francine is expected to make landfall this weekend, bringing with it heavy rain, strong winds, and a potential tornado threat. Residents in the affected areas are urged to take necessary precautions to stay safe during the storm.
Stay Informed
Stay updated on the latest weather forecasts and warnings. Monitor local news and weather channels for up-to-date information on the storm's track and intensity. Heed evacuation orders if issued for your area.
Secure Your Property
Secure loose outdoor items such as furniture, toys, and trash cans that could become projectiles in strong winds. Cover windows with hurricane shutters or plywood to prevent breakage. Reinforce doors and garage doors to withstand high winds.
Stock up on Supplies
Gather a supply of non-perishable food, water, first-aid kits, flashlights, and extra batteries. Consider purchasing a generator if you rely on electricity for essential medical equipment or appliances.
