TALLAHASSEE, Fla. – As monitoring and preparation efforts continue for Tropical Storm Erika, SERT officials are encouraging all Florida residents, visitors and businesses to visit the website FLGetAPlan.com, and to use this site as the basis for building a customized emergency plan. “A visit to FLGetAPlan.com takes just five minutes, and can help you create a plan to better prepare your family and keep them safe,” said FDEM Director Bryan W. Koon. “The website provides a quick and simple option for those looking to build a basic emergency plan for their family or business.” FLGetAPlan.com is an interactive website designed to provide families and businesses with the basic foundation for building a disaster supply kit, evacuation planning and communication needs.   Building a disaster supply kit is a simple and effective way to make sure your family has enough water, food, medicine and other essential supplies to survive for at least 72 hours during the absence of services immediately following a disaster. The 2015 Atlantic Hurricane season runs from June 1 – November 30.  For additional information about severe weather in Florida, and to Get A Plan, visitFloridaDisaster.org and FLGetAPlan.com.  Follow the SERT on social media on Twitter at @FLSERT and Facebook at www.Facebook.com/FloridaSERT.
