Advice: Hurricane season lasts from June through November. Here’s how to be prepared.
Even in areas where the storm isn’t hitting directly, there could be threats, so travelers in a widespread area should monitor emergency notifications. Dozor said tornadoes were a risk in South Florida on Tuesday, for example.Dozor, formerly deputy assistant administrator for response at the Federal Emergency Management Agency, said he recommends evacuating even if there’s only a voluntary evacuation announced — and definitely if there’s a mandatory order.
Transportation routes might also be limited; Florida and other states will often switch all lanes of a highway to go in one direction — away from the storm — or restrict movement in some lanes to emergency use only.Hurricanes aren’t just one-day events. Dozor said they can cause prolonged power outages, poor cell coverage and fuel and food shortages for 50 to 100 miles. Travelers should makes sure their phones and backup batteries are charged before a storm and conserve battery power.
Carnival canceled two cruises, the Carnival Paradise from Tampa and Carnival Elation from Jacksonville, which were scheduled to depart Thursday.Insurance can provide some coverage if a trip is canceled because of a storm, depending on the policy. But that purchase needs to be made well in advance of a looming hurricane.

As the 50th anniversary of her death approaches, LAWRENCE SCHILLER, in an adaptation from his memoir of those sessions, recalls Monroe’s mix of vulnerability and cold calculation as she guided his camera toward the ultimate revelation—breathtaking nude shots, some unseen till now—and their tense encounter the day before she died
