As we head into hurricane season, it’s crucial to understand forecasts. Follow the @weatherchannel to stay up to date and safe.
Prepare for hurricane season by knowing how to understand forecasts. They can tell you a lot about what is expected, including the storm’s path, rainfall amounts, wind speeds, and more. #HurricanePrep #HurricaneStrong noaa.gov/understand-forecast…

Alcohol impairs judgment, reaction time, and decision-making abilities, making it more difficult for boat operators and passengers to assess situations, process information, and respond safely on the water. Always boat sober! #OperationDryWater
