History teaches that a lack of hurricane awareness and preparation are 
common threads among all major hurricane disasters. By knowing your 
vulnerability and what actions you should take, you can reduce the 
effects of a hurricane disaster.

Hurricane hazards <http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/prepare/hazards.php> come in 
many forms, including storm surge, heavy rainfall, inland flooding, high 
winds, tornadoes, and rip currents. The National Weather Service is 
responsible for protecting life and property through issuance of timely 
watches and warnings <http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/prepare/wwa.php>, but it 
is essential that your family be ready 
<http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/prepare/ready.php> before a storm approaches. 
Furthermore, mariners should be aware of special safety precautions 
<http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/prepare/marine.php> when confronted with a 
hurricane.

Download the Tropical Cyclone Preparedness Guide 
<http://www.weather.gov/os/hurricane/resources/TropicalCyclones11.pdf> 
(PDF) or follow the links for more information. But remember, this is 
only a guide. The first and most important thing anyone should do when 
facing a hurricane threat is to use common sense.

National Hurricane Preparedness Week 2014 runs from May 25th through May 
31st.
