Hurricane Preparedness

We’re focused on helping you best prepare for and recover from hurricane season (June 1 – Nov 30) and potential flood events throughout the year. 

Below is a list of resources to help you get back on track should you experience flooding or damage after a storm.

Lastly, we urge our broader community of neighbors to Think Local First when it’s safe to do so. Your local business community – across all sectors – are greatly impacted by storms of this nature. Even in best-case scenarios when flooding and physical damage is not a concern – the evacuations and loss of tourist traffic create an immediate loss of revenue. When you are ready to get life back to normal, we urge you to put your dollars to work in the community in which you choose to live. Love the Lowcountry!
