If you stay ready you don't have to get ready.

As hurricane season progresses it is a good idea to keep up with programs and social media tools that can keep you up to date with storm updates.

Weather Ready

SERVPRO of Sangamon County has joined forces with the National Weather Services weather ambassador program. What does this mean?

WRN Ambassadors serve a pivotal role in affecting societal change — helping to build a nation that is ready, responsive, and resilient to the impacts of extreme weather and water events.
To be officially recognized as a WRN Ambassador, an organization must commit to:

• Promoting Weather-Ready Nation messages and themes to their stakeholders;
• Engaging with NOAA personnel on potential collaboration opportunities;
• Sharing their success stories of preparedness and resiliency;
• Serving as an example by educating employees on workplace preparedness

As we continue educating ourselves we will be sharing what we learn from the National Weather Service with our customers, please check our Facebook page for weather updates and helpful information before during and after storms and Weather events.

Early Awareness

One vital aspect of the Weather Ambassador program is to promote disaster preparedness. We encourage the public to have a disaster readiness plan including a go  bag, designated meting place and to maintain a general reediness so that you not caught of guard.
