September is National Preparedness Month
Hashtag
#NatlPrep
Throughout the month of September, there will be a number of activities scheduled across the country to promote emergency preparedness. In fact, some three-thousand separate organizations, on a national level, a regional level and a local level, will be out there supporting emergency preparedness. They'll also be encouraging people to be absolutely ready to take immediate action, should it be necessary.

Keep in mind, hurricane season is still very much in effect. It actually runs until the end of November. And historically speaking, September has proven to be the most severe month for hurricanes up and down the Eastern Seaboard. Be prepared, not scared.
