It's hurricane season. Here's what to pack in your "hurricane ready bag"
Are you ready if Myrtle Beach is threatened by a hurricane this season? Advance preparation is the key to your family's safety (and sense of calm!) if a hurricane comes calling between now and November 30. "Know your zone" for evacuations, of course. Know where you'll go if an evacuation is required. And as the graphic shows, have a "Go Bag" or "evacuation kit" ready to grab at a moment's notice. Include important documents, medical information, electronics, personal needs and more. This example is provided by the Horry County Emergency Management Division.
