@​HawaiiRedCross volunteers have been hard at work helping communities recover from Hurricane Lowell. On Kauaʻi, volunteers are distributing emergency supplies and assessing damage across the island. Lowell was the third severe weather event to impact Hawaii in less than a month. As the storm moved through the islands, many communities were still recovering from Hurricane Lala and Tropical Storm Moke, which struck just weeks apart in August. Hawaii's recent storms are a reminder that preparedness matters. During this National Preparedness Month and hurricane season, take a few minutes to review your emergency plan, refresh your emergency kit, and talk with loved ones about how you'll stay connected if disaster strikes.
