The 2019 hurricane season is here: Citizens Is Ready. Are You?
TALLAHASSEE, FL - Citizens Property Insurance Corporation is reminding policyholders to shore up their emergency preparations as we enter the 2019 hurricane season that begins Saturday.
"Another hurricane season is upon us and our policyholders' highest priority must be their personal safety," said Barry Gilway, Citizens President, CEO and Executive Director. "With Hurricanes Irma and Michael still fresh in our minds, we urge everyone to make sensible preparations. Citizens is ready. You should be, too. "
To help all Floridians, Citizens has partnered with the Florida Public Radio Emergency Network (FPREN) to bring the latest news about catastrophic weather impacting your area. Following a storm, FPREN updates can be heard on public radio stations. An updated mobile app is expected to be released soon.
The Citizens website features a Storm Tracker feedhttps://www.citizensfla.com/monitor, which delivers real-time National Hurricane Centerhttp://www.nhc.noaa.gov/gtwo.php?basin=atlc updates directly to your desktop and mobile device through its websitehttp://www.citizensfla.com/. Citizens also offers storm preparation and response information through Facebookhttps://www.facebook.com/CitizensPropertyInsuranceCorp/?fref=ts and Twitter at @citizens_flahttps://twitter.com/citizens_fla.
Going into the 2019 hurricane season, policyholders should:
