Preparations for Florence

While Florence is still well offshore, the forecast track from the National Hurricane Center shows an increasing risk for parts of the Mid-Atlantic and Southeast US coastline with Tropical Storm Force winds (sustained winds of 34 to 63 knots (39 to 73 mph or 63 to 118 km/hr)) likely arriving Wednesday evening. See NHC Most Likely Arrival Time of Tropical-Storm-Force Winds graphics at https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/refresh/graphics_at1+shtml/145549.shtml?mltoa34#contents

Do not wait until Tropical Storm or Hurricane Watches and Warnings are posted, review your hurricane plans now to protect your family, home, and boat.
