Hurricane season

The National Hurricane Center issues watches and warnings for storms that threaten parts of the United States. Hurricanes bring with them storm surges, heavy rains, high winds, tornadoes and rip currents. The official hurricane season is May through November, but hurricanes can happen in any month.

If you’re in an area most likely to see such storms, the Hurricane Preparedness Guide offers information on how to protect employees while minimizing damage and loss of postal assets, including vehicles and facilities. It’s available on the National Preparedness webpage at http://blue.usps.gov/nationalpreparedness/.

And that’s smart safety!
