โ ๏ธ Tropical storms can be just as dangerous as hurricanes. This is a reminder that hurricane season is activeโget ready now! Find tips to get started from @Readygov at ready.gov/hurricanes.
Flooding & storm surge are often the greatest threats from tropical systems. Never drive or walk through floodwaters-6" of moving water can knock you down, 12" can carry away a vehicle. Monitor updates from @NHC_Atlantic & alerts from local officials in case you need to evacuate.
๐ Connection is key. This week, CNMI officials, local partners, and @fema worked to set up a mobile tower trailer on Rota. The trailer, donated by @ITDRC, helped restore public internet access after the existing tower was toppled during Typhoon Bavi.
For #Hawaii: In-person FEMA assistance for Kona Low flooding has moved from the Wailua Courthouse to the Waialua Church of Christ.
Staff from FEMA and @SBAgov are available: Monday through Friday, 9am - 6pm.

Keep pets away from grills and fire pits. Cooking food and leftover grease can be an attractive scent. Grills can be knocked over easily and embers can ignite the nearby grass and vegetation. #SummerReady
