Hurricane Community Forum - Wanchese
All members of the public are invited—and strongly encouraged!—to attend either of the forums, particularly those who are new to Dare County and have not been through a hurricane or tropical weather event previously.
Forum attendees will have the opportunity to hear a presentation from a National Weather Service meteorologist about hurricanes and their impacts on eastern North Carolina. In addition, the presentation will cover the reasons why it’s important to never focus solely upon the category of the storm, along with discussing all of the impacts any tropical cyclone can bring.
In addition to storm impacts, information on how to prepare and actions to take before, during and after a storm will be shared with attendees by the National Weather Service and Dare County Emergency Management. At the end of the presentation, there will be a community discussion during which attendees can ask any questions they may have.
While registration isn't required to attend, please use the link to share your contact information so that you will receive a notification in the event the forum is cancelled. Your RSVP also helps the event’s presenters ensure handouts are provided for all forum attendees.
