🌀 June marks the start of the Atlantic Hurricane Season, and we're throwing it back to our 2005 ReCap newsletter article by our resident meteorologist at the time, John Gerrish. John detailed how hurricanes are formed and tracked. He writes: "Hurricanes are the most dynamic and destructive of all atmospheric storms . . . We cannot stop hurricanes, so we must learn to get out of their way. Advanced warning is the most crucial part of the mitigation process, and learning more about these dynamic forces helps us to better understand and contend with nature’s most devastating storms." The details are just as relevant now as they were then - read the full article here . Preparing for storms ahead of time is key. Click here are some practical Hurricane Preparedness steps from NOAA.
