Personal Preparedness

Everyone needs to be prepared. Natural disasters, such as the June 5 storm, as well as man-made hazards face us every day.

For information about preparing, go to the Federal Emergency Management Agency, call 800-BE-READY, or visit the American Red Cross.

Come back here often for disaster tips.
