Hurricane Season officially began on June 1st. As most locals know, the "heart of the season" is in August and September. Please take the time now to think about what you and your family will need to do to stay safe if the city is threatened by a storm. Check out these links for more information.
For our City to be ready, our community must be ready.
Every emergency is different, and requires both the City and the community to be prepared. 24/7, 365 days a year, agencies across the City of New Orleans work to keep you safe and our city prepared for any event or emergency.
Hurricane Preparedness
Visit NOLA Ready's Hurricane Preparedness portal for all the information you need before, during, and after a storm. This is vitally important for seniors and individuals with special medical needs.
- Check out these reminders from the SPCA as we are at the start of the 2017 hurricane season.Make sure you have a plan for your pets!
We learned during Hurricane Katrina that it is vitally important to take the threat of storms seriously and to be prepared to leave if ordered to do so by officials. Stuff can be replaced over time. People cannot.
If you do not have the means to evacuate the city, please take the time now to become familiar with the work of Evacuteer.org
