颶風Earl逼近 FEMA呼籲東海岸居民及緊急處理單位加強戒備

(08/30/2010)

時序正處於颶風季中的高發期，不論卡翠娜還是艾克，都是在八月下旬至九月中來襲造成重大損失，創傷猶在。

如今風速達135哩的颶風Earl在狂掃加勒比海時，FEMA與其他颶風中心擔心它將對東海岸產生的影響，而於30日傍晚發出警告。

As Hurricane Earl moves toward Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands and then up toward the East Coast of the United States, the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) is urging all Americans in East Coast states to take steps now to prepare their families and businesses for hurricanes and severe weather. While there are currently no hurricane warnings or watches in effect for the U.S. mainland, current projections from the National Hurricane Center show the storm could affect states up and down the East Coast and storm tracks can change quickly and unexpectedly. With this in mind, FEMA is coordinating through its regional offices to aggressively prepare should severe weather affect the East Coast and encouraging all Americans to visit www.ready.gov for helpful tips on preparing for hurricanes, flash flooding, and other disasters.
