Tropical Storm season runs from June 1st through November 30th. 

Hurricanes rotate in a counterclockwise direction around an "eye."

Category 1:  Winds 74 - 95 mph
Category 2:  Winds 96 - 110 mph
Category 3:  Winds 111 - 130 mph
Category 4:  Winds 131 - 155 mph
Category 5:  Winds greater than 155 mph

As the hurricane travels - the winds to the right of the eye are the strongest.  The wind coming back the other way is not quite as strong.

Check your Homeowners Insurance now - most insurance companies will not upgrade your insurance once a Tropical Storm has formed.

Here are some good tips on protecting your property from wind and other damage.

Here's what FEMA says you should do to prepare.
