This site is continuously evolving to assist its visitors. One new item that has generated a lot of excitement is the creation of NC Storm Path , a collection of weather resources and links for events such as hurricanes and other natural disasters. With the hurricane season becoming busier, NC Storm Path s information provides valuable advice to assist North Carolinians before, during and after a storm. The page features commonly used weather services such as current NC weather, local radar, satellite images, weather news, and current forecasts, watches and warnings. NC Storm Path includes links to storm preparedness checklists from NC Emergency Management and the American Red Cross, evacuation information, local shelter information, county Emergency Management contact information, FEMA's Hurricane Page for kids and storm statistics.
Some information is also available in Spanish.
In the event that North Carolina is threatened by a storm, be sure to visit OSP hot topics under Featured Items for information on the state s adverse weather policy and potential closings.
