Seasons may change, but the need to be prepared for any season remains the same.
The Sussex County Emergency Operations Center reminds the public that hazard preparation is a year-round necessity, whether it’s ahead of hurricane season – 2020 was the most active season ever recorded – or the nor’easter season that typically runs from now to mid-March.
As the calendar turns to the colder months, residents and property owners are encouraged to check supplies, monitor weather conditions and take appropriate action as directed this winter season.
