Ridgecrest Earthquakes - A wake-up call for many to get prepared.

Ridgecrest Earthquakes - A wake-up call for many to get prepared.

In a matter of 48 hours Southern California earthquakes led to unprecedented demand for Luminary Survival Kits. One of our collaborative partners received over 10,000 orders for survival kits within 72 hours of the first earthquake. This increase in orders has resulted in delays in delivery from several of our manufacturing partners. Luminary asks for your patience as they get caught up processing orders.

We hope the experience of the citizens in Southern California proves to be a lesson learned for the public…..BE PREPARED.

“Preparing ahead of a disaster is the responsibility of all levels of government, the private sector, and the public," said Daniel Kaniewski, Ph.D., FEMA deputy administrator for resilience. “It only takes one event to devastate a community so now is the time to prepare…..stay tuned to your local news and download the FEMA app to get alerts, and make sure you heed any warnings issued by local officials.”  https://www.noaa.gov/media-release/noaa-predicts-near-normal-2019-atlantic-hurricane-season

Hurricane Season 2019 – Tropical Storm Barry

We are just at the beginning of hurricane seasons (Jun – Nov) and Tropical Storm Berry is already brewing in the Gulf of Mexico. We encourage our customers to prepare now for both natural and human-caused disasters Please do not wait until the last minute, or after the crisis has occurred, to prepare yourself and your families. Luminary has ready to purchase kits for individuals or up to 20 person kits. We also encourage you to supplement these items with a complete food, clothing, electronics, and entertainment items.

“That’s why I always like to emphasize forget about whether or not we talk about it’s going to be an active year or a below normal year or a near normal year, it only takes that one storm to deliver an impact and to change our lives forever,” stated National Weather Service Tampa Bay Meteorologist-in-Charge Brian LaMarre as he referenced 1992 when Hurricane Andrew ravaged South Florida and leveled much of Homestead, Florida. That year there were just seven storms with four hurricanes. Andrew was the only major storm. https://floridapolitics.com/archives/297054-hurricane-season-warn-residents
