Prepare Early, Then Follow Local Officials
The Atlantic hurricane season officially runs from June 1 through November 30. Gulf Coast residents should prepare before a storm enters the Gulf rather than waiting for a warning.

Before a Storm
Build a Practical Hurricane Plan
Use official local guidance and complete property work well before tropical-storm conditions arrive.

Make a household communication plan, prepare essential supplies, protect important documents, and include pets and accessibility needs.
Inspect Trees Before the Season
Address dead limbs, weakened trees, and branches near structures before a storm approaches. Do not attempt tree work during severe weather.
