National Preparedness Month: Steps to take before severe weather strikes

New York, we're doing everything we can to keep you safe this hurricane season. I brought in an expert to help get us prepared. Here's what you should do if a storm is on its way: Check whether you live in a coastal evacuation zone and find your nearest City-run evacuation center at finder.nyc.gov/hurricane. Pack a go bag with medications, important documents and other essentials. Sign up for emergency alerts by texting NOTIFYNYC to 692-692.
