Hurricane Preparedness Week: Winds
Two easy ways to get your yard or property ready for hurricane season:
– Have a plan for bringing in all outdoor furniture & securing anything else that isn’t tied down, should a storm threaten the area
– Trim the trees and shrubs around your home. High winds can turn branches into projectiles during a storm

Please note that here in Hawai‘i, we need to stock water and supplies for at least 7-10 days. Most government websites recommend 3 days, and that is a reasonable supply if you live on the continental United States. Hawai‘i is dependent on container ships that take 7 days to get to Hawai‘i from Oakland or Los Angeles.
