HURRICANE SEASON
Environment and Climate Change Canada and the US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) have forecasted a very active hurricane season for 2024. Record high ocean temperatures due to climate change has been the driving factor for the increase in the number and intensity of storms predicted to impact those living on the East Coast.
The best course of action is to BE PREPARED.
