Hopefully most of you have been paying attention the
last day or so to Hurricane Sandy and her potential track over the next several
days. As of this moment, indications are
Sandy will have a potentially historic impact from our area up to New England
starting sometime late Sunday through as late as Tuesday.
I encourage everyone to keep a close eye on this as it
is an ever changing event. A good source
of info, beside your local news coverage, is the National Hurricane Center web site. Take a moment to look around and keep track
of this storm.
Also highly encouraged is to make sure your Emergency Preparedness
plans are ready and up to date. Now is a
good time to check and make sure you have all the tools needed to take care of
you and loved ones – especially if your electric power service is knocked out
for a few days.
Below, please find some links that I hope you might
find useful. I believe it will be well
worth your time to go through each to learn more and possibly look at ways you
can better prepare for this, or other like, events.
