Westchester County Executive George Latimer is urging residents to prepare for severe weather by reviewing their emergency plans and stocking up on critical supplies. Hurricane season runs from June 1 through December 1, and severe storms often cause major flooding and widespread power outages. Latimer advised residents to have flashlights, batteries, canned and non-perishable foods on hand before any significant storm is in the forecast. In 2021, five Westchester County residents lost their lives due to severe flooding from a major summer storm. County emergency responders recommend residents set aside several days’ worth of non-perishable food, water, and medicine, and keep other critical supplies nearby like flashlights and batteries in case they are stuck in their homes without power. Residents should also have a “go-bag” ready in case they are asked to evacuate on short notice during an emergency.
