Florida Power & Light: Getting Ready for Hurricane Season

Hurricane season is on its way. South Florida may be exposed to 140 mph winds, so it's time to get ready.

• If you live in Florida, FPL Storm Center can help you prepare for storm season. In fact, anyone who lives in a region prone to tropical storms may find useful information on their site.
• FPL StormSecure shows what Florida Power & Light is doing to make their power delivery system more resilient to hurricane-force winds.
• Especially during high winds, trees that are too close to power lines can cause electrical outages and can become a public safety hazard. Residential Trees and Power Lines shows how to plan your landscaping to avoid problems in the future.
• Update: Governor of Florida experiences "Hurricane Max", FPL's storm preparedness exercise, as the 2007 storm season approaches.
