It’s hurricane season again, but are you ready for it?

Why not log onto www.hurricaneeducation.com and take the "Unleashing Nature's Fury" This exciting and informative e-learning web site guides you through all phases of a hurricane, how and where they form, how they are detected and tracked, who tracks them and the devastation they cause, but most importantly, how YOU AND YOUR FAMILY should be prepared.

The course includes random, multiple-choice test questions, the results of which will be stored to a database. At the end of the course you will be graded. It is fun, absolutely free and designed for all ages.

This public service e-learning web site was developed by The Media Factory in accordance with information made publicly available by the National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and The American Red Cross.

"Our Tropical Focal Point, Ron Morales, went through evaluating your Hurricane Preparedness course and we just finished discussing it together. He was very impressed with it. It took about 30 minutes for him to go through it and he indicated that it can easily appeal to any age group from say middle school to adults. He also thought that it was very thorough in content and accuracy. Our evaluation is quite favorable for this worthy preparedness instrument."
