ALERT!

With storms and warnings starting to pop from the west and moving eastward across the state. All units are on ALERT for the next 24 hours.

If storms hit in your area, when it is safe to do so, go out and assess the damage, respond as needed. Let us know what you encounter.

Be careful to stay out of the way of first responders.

Pray for all that are in the way of the storms.

Once you are logged in, you will be able to specify the Disaster Relief designation to which you want to give. (Note to churches: if you are making an online contribution as a church, please read these instructions.)

2026 HURRICANE SEASON 🌀 Hard to believe, but it's now 100 days away. The early outlook is for the number of storms to be closer to average or slightly above average. (It’s also February and by no means a lock or guarantee this early).

Long-range models are showing that the current La Niña is projected to flip to El Niño by the peak of the 2026 Atlantic Hurricane Season. Historically, if that occurs, that would create higher wind shear across the Tropical Atlantic and Caribbean…helping to suppress or lower tropical activity. Stating the obvious, that doesn’t mean you can’t have hurricanes or US landfalls. Remember, it’s about impact, not just the number of storms.

Something we’ll have to watch would be the potential for warmer than average water temperatures across the Atlantic Basin…which could counteract the influence from El Niño and provide additional fuel for storms.

Although I won’t be on TV this hurricane season, that doesn’t mean I won’t be with you. In fact, it’ll be the opposite. I’ll be able to provide even more updates than ever before on multiple online and digital platforms. You can always trust me to be with you every step of the way all season long 24/7 with no hype, just the facts. In the meantime, continue to enjoy the off-season!
