Hurricane season is here, and the best time to prepare is before a storm is in the forecast. A few simple steps taken now can make a big difference later.
Take time to review your emergency plans, gather supplies, check flashlights and batteries, fuel vehicles and generators, and make sure important documents are stored in a safe place. Staying prepared helps keep your family safer and reduces stress when severe weather approaches.
The Town of Franklinton encourages everyone to be ready, stay informed, and look out for your neighbors this hurricane season.
