Need Help Now?

If you are in immediate need of help, please contact your local Red Cross » or find an open shelter » 

hurricane preparedness powerpoint presentation

Hurricane Idalia Assistance

The Red Cross is providing financial assistance to households whose homes were confirmed to have been destroyed or sustained major damage by Hurricane Idalia. 

Learn More »

Hurricanes are massive storm systems that form over ocean water and often move toward land. Hurricanes bring high winds, heavy rain, storm surge (rise in water level), flooding and tornadoes. These storms are dangerous and can cause damage to places far inland.

Prepare now so you can stay safe.

What Should You Do Before a Hurricane?

Determine your best protection from high winds and flooding. Have a plan to evacuate and a plan to shelter safely. Take time now to gather the supplies and knowledge you will need when the storm arrives.

Plan to Evacuate

If advised to evacuate, do so immediately  and go to a safe place.

  • Know where you will go , how you will get there, and where you will stay. 
  • Plan well in advance if you will need help leaving or use public transportation.
  • Mobile/manufactured/trailer homes and recreational vehicles (RVs) cannot provide safe shelter from tropical-storm or hurricane-force winds.

Plan to Shelter Safely

  • Be ready to live without power, water, gas, phone, and internet for a long time.
  • Practice going to a designated safe shelter for high winds. The next best protection is a small, interior, windowless room in a sturdy building on the lowest level that is not likely to flood.
  • If you are in an area that is likely to flood, designate a location on higher ground that you can move to before floodwaters reach you.

Hurricanes and typhoons are the same type of storm – the name changes based on where they occur.

How Can You Protect Your Home Before a Hurricane?

Prepare for wind.

  • Secure items outside, such as lawn furniture and trash cans, that could be picked up by high winds and hurt someone.
  • Anchor objects that would be unsafe to bring inside, such as gas grills and propane tanks.
  • Trim or remove trees close enough to fall on your home. Review insurance policies.
  • Protect windows with permanent storm shutters or pre-cut plywood. 

Prepare for Flooding

  • Clean out drains, gutters and downspouts.
  • Stockpile protective materials such as plastic sheeting and sandbags.
  • Consider installing a sump pump with battery backup.
  • Consider elevating the heating system, water heater, and electric panel.

Test your knowledge with our quick quiz. You might ace the test or you might learn something new — either way, you win!

What Should You Do During a Hurricane?

If authorities advise or order you to evacuate, grab your emergency kit and go right away. If you are not in a mandatory evacuation zone, you will need to decide whether to leave the area, move to higher ground nearby, or stay in your home. If you decide to stay home, remember that even if the high winds and floodwaters do not reach your home, you may lose power and water, and you may not be able to leave your home for several days if the roads are impassable.

Hurricanes Page Divider Images

  • If local authorities advise you to evacuate, go right away.
  • Bring your Go Kit .
  • Follow evacuation routes and do not try to take shortcuts because they may be blocked.
  • Check with local officials for shelter locations. Download the FREE Red Cross Emergency App to find shelters near you.

Staying at Home

  • Determine your best protection for high winds and flooding.
  • Take shelter in a designated storm shelter or an interior room for high winds.
  • Stay away from glass windows and doors.
  • Move to higher ground before flooding begins.

Never walk, swim, or try to drive through floodwater. 

Remember: turn around don’t drown.

hurricane preparedness powerpoint presentation

When a hurricane or tropical storm strikes, the Red Cross provides shelter, food and comfort. 

How Can You Stay Safe After a Hurricane?

If you evacuated, don't return home until local officials have declared that it is safe to enter your community and you have the supplies you will need. If your home was damaged by hurricane-force winds or flooding after the storm, it should be carefully inspected and thoroughly cleaned. 

hurricane preparedness powerpoint presentation

Safety Basics

  • Wait for officials to say it is safe before going back home.
  • Avoid damaged or fallen power lines, poles, and downed wires. They can electrocute you.
  • Do not touch floodwaters because they may contain sewage, bacteria and chemicals that can make you ill.
  • Prevent carbon monoxide poisoning. Gasoline, propane, natural gas, or charcoal-burning devices should never be used inside a home, basement, garage, tent, or camper – or even outside near an open window. Carbon monoxide can't be seen or smelled, but it can kill you fast. If you start to feel sick, dizzy, or weak, get to fresh air right away – do not delay.

How to Clean Up Safely

  • Wear appropriate protective equipment including gloves, goggles and boots.
  • Clean and disinfect everything that got wet.
  • When cleaning heavy debris, work with a partner. Make sure that you have proper training before using equipment, such as chainsaws.
  • Heart attacks are a leading cause of deaths after a hurricane. Be mindful of overworking.

Tips to Stay Healthy

  • When in doubt, throw it out! Throw out food that got wet or warm. Ask your healthcare provider for guidance if you have refrigerated medicines that got warm.
  • Avoid drinking tap water until local officials say it is safe.

Take Care of Yourself

  • It’s normal to have a lot of feelings.
  • Eat healthy food and get enough sleep to help you deal with stress.
  • You can contact the Disaster Distress Helpline for free if you need to talk to someone at 1-800-985-5990 or text “TalkWithUs’ to 66746.

Possible Scenarios • 81 TRW/CC’s decision: • Category 1 or 2 storm: • Limited evacuation • Students and Support personnel shelter • Category 4 or 5 storm: • Maximum evacuation, includes TRG • 100-200 personnel left on base • Category 3 storm: • Could go either way

Evacuation Procedures • Evacuation of Storm Mission Non-Essential Personnel ordered by Wing Commander. • Storm Mission Non-Essential Personnel: evacuate to a Safe Haven location 150-600 miles away from Keesler and out of the path of the storm. • On-base shelters are activated during HURCON 1 to accommodate Hurricane Essential personnel and students, dependents allowed, but not recommended. • Evacuees:After arriving, call in your Safe Haven location to the Accountability Team at Maxwell AFB. • LEAVE EARLY!!! If you will be evacuating, leave as soon as possible after order has been given. Members have become stranded due to traffic jams, blocked roads and bridges, flooding, and lack of gas. No entitlements will be issued until an official 81 TRW/CC evacuation order is given. • After the Hurricane has passed: contact the • Keesler Accountability number1-800-673-9356 or AFPC number 1-800-435-9941 to get return info.

Evacuation Routes • E/W: I-10, I-20; 90 is out • N/S: 49, I-59, I-65 (farther from the coast = better) • Contra-flow will likely be in effect • Monitor radio for traffic information

Evacuation “Benefits” Psychological: • Dependents, Storm Mission Non-Essential members safe • Don’t have to sit in a room with 20 other people for several hours Financial: • Mileage to extent of Evacuation Order • Protect your vehicle

Shelter Caveats • Power may go out, generators are for mission/operational support only • Most rooms will not have lights or A/C • Showers will not be available inside the shelter • Expect to share a room w/ 20 people – coed • The more shelterees we have, the less we can focus on local support • Fire Dept can’t respond above 70 mph winds • NO SMOKING in the shelter, you won’t be released during the storm for a smoke break

Emergency Supplies • Prescription Medications • Food and Water Container (3 day supply) (Water in Shelter will be provided) • Flashlights/Spare Batteries • Blankets • Portable Radio • First Aid Kit • Manual Can Opener • Important Documents/Cash May Bring to Shelter or when Evacuating
