We've talked a lot about ensuring that you are getting your information from reliable sources over the last couple of weeks. Now let's discuss a few useful examples of where to (and where not to) actually obtain that info. #PSA #HurricaneSeason #WeatherReady #NWS
As the Atlantic awakens with an increasing amount of tropical activity, now is a great time to share another important #PSA to get your weather information from reliable sources. Hurricane season is a marathon, not a sprint! Quiet the hype, remain informed and stay prepared.
