Hurricane Season is Here ... Are You Ready?

Make sure you are prepared for the 2009 hurricane season. All citizens should plan to protect themselves, their families, and their pets in the event of a hurricane or tropical storm. There are three easy, low-cost steps families can take to get ready:

• Get a Kit
• Make a Plan
• Stay Informed

Visit ReadyVirginia.gov for detailed information on the three steps to preparedness. Make sure you and your family always have the latest Hampton-specific information during any emergency by visiting www.hampton.gov, tuning in to WHOV 88.1FM, viewing Hampton City Channel 47/23, and making sure you are signed up to get up-to-the-minute e-mail messages from Hampton eNews at www.enews.hampton.gov.
