After a hurricane, it could take hours or days for emergency responders to reach your area. Communication systems may be impacted, and making phone/video calls may be difficult due to network congestion. If possible, communicate via text, email, or social media. #HurricaneStrong https://x.com/NWSAtlanta/status/1921233778909057251

Additional injuries and fatalities can occur during the clean-up phase after a storm. Perform cleanups slowly, stay hydrated, and take lots of breaks from the heat. Make sure to check on your elderly neighbors and other vulnerable people in your community. #HurricaneStrong https://x.com/NWSAtlanta/status/1921052579431412032

After a hurricane or tropical storm has passed, that doesn't mean the danger is over. Even if the sun is out and the sky is blue, there could still be live powerlines down, hazards under the flood waters, and oppressive heat. #HurricanePrep #HurricaneStrong #gawx https://x.com/NWSAtlanta/status/1920848736688717994
