FDEM Director Kevin Guthrie urged South Floridians to be prepared, be ready, and have a plan. FDEM grant funding made Saturday's Eye of the Storm a free admission day at MODS. Now is the time to finalize your hurricane plans for your family, home and business.
Kicked off hurricane season at the Eye of the Storm event @MODSFTL — where education meets preparedness. When people understand the science behind hurricanes and how to stay safe, our entire community becomes stronger. Events like this make science accessible, relevant, and FUN!
