🌀 September Is Peak Hurricane Season — Be Prepared!
We are entering the most active part of Atlantic hurricane season. Historically, September 10 marks the climatological peak, and tropical activity can remain elevated through September and into October.
Even though Coffee County is inland, hurricanes and tropical storms can still bring heavy rainfall, flash flooding, damaging winds, tornadoes and power outages to our area.
Now is a good time to make sure your family is prepared:
✅ Check your emergency kit: Have water, nonperishable food, medications, flashlights, batteries and other essentials ready.
✅ Make a family plan: Know where you will go and how you will communicate if severe weather affects our area.
✅ Prepare your property: Secure outdoor items, check generators and supplies, and make plans for pets.
✅ Stay informed: Monitor trusted weather sources and follow official alerts and instructions from local authorities.
Don't wait until a storm is approaching to prepare. A little preparation now can make a big difference when severe weather threatens.
