FEMA plays an integral role in disaster preparedness, response, and recovery. States would quickly be overwhelmed without their assistance...kind of why states REQUEST a disaster declaration.

Building back stronger and improving individual and community resilience post devastating natural disasters must be a priority. Communities in North Carolina must enforce locally adopted NFIP Substantial Damage to provide safer homes that will better withstand future events.

Emergency management … resilience … mitigation … insurance … reduce disaster suffering … important public policy issues that need to be a higher priority.

If you live in a high-risk area for flooding, being financially prepared is important. Ensure your property is protected by investing in flood insurance.

Talk with your insurance agent about the benefits of flood insurance and options available for you: https://t.co/LtK66gTKGs

[FEMA @fema]

Tropical Storm #Idalia may bring life-threatening storm surge along portions of the Florida Gulf Coast, up to 11 feet above ground level.

Storm surge is deadly. It is critical that anyone ordered to evacuate does so immediately.

Follow @NHC_Atlantic & @NHC_Surge for updates.

[FEMA @fema]

We encourage everyone in the path of Tropical Storm #Idalia to prepare now.

Please listen to your local officials, have different ways to receive emergency alerts and evacuate immediately if told to do so.
