## How to prepare for a Hurricane

The process of forecasting the force and track of a hurricane is a very complicated process. It takes a collaboration of methods. The National Hurricane Center uses hurricane hunter aircraft, ocean buoys, Doppler radar, and satellites in the process.

What should you do in the event of a Hurricane? The first step in preparing is to create a family emergency plan. We have found an excellent YouTube video on what you can do to prepare for a Hurricane:

We encourage everyone to use this video as a starting point on how to create your family emergency plan.
