Storm Preparedness refers to the actions and measures taken to plan for and reduce the impact of storms, particularly severe weather events such as hurricanes, tornadoes, and thunderstorms. It involves assessing risk, developing emergency plans, assembling necessary supplies, and ensuring communication strategies are in place.

The goal is to protect lives, minimize damage to property, and ensure a swift recovery following a storm’s occurrence.
