Hello Friends,

There is a heightened sense of awareness within SNJ Section as Hurricane Sandy approaches our area. I'd like to ask everyone to double check your GO-Kits. I'd also like to remind you to remain tuned to your Local/County EC's, AEC's and DEC's for important news and Instructions.
ARRL is aware of Sandy and is closely tracking her progress. ARRL along with SNJ Section SEC John Zaruba Jr. K2ZA, Myself and Other ARRL SNJ Section Officers will keep everyone up-to-date. FInally, Please do not place yourself in harms way and please obey all safety directives by local authorities.

I've attached the alert posted to ARRL SNJ Section page below...Thank you to ASM Gary Wilson, K2GW and SEC John Zaruba Jr. K2ZA for taking charge of this event...

IMPORTANT NOTICE FROM OUR SNJ SECTION EMERGENCY COORDINATOR

Sandy has been upgraded to a Category 2 hurricane.

There is an increasing possibility the storm will affect our region.
I'm considering raising the section alert level over the weekend; the timing will be determined by tomorrow's NWS weather briefing package.

Now would be an excellent time to review your family disaster plan and supply kit, charge up batteries, function test equipment, and replenish any missing items from your go-kit.

Please make sure you have reviewed the most recent version of the communications plan available at:

http://www.snj-ares.org/emergency-communications-plan

I'll provide more information as it becomes available.
