Conclusion

The goal of this webquest was to help you learn the basics about hurricanes and think critically about how families can stay safe. It is very important for every family living along the Gulf of Mexico and Atlantic Coast to have a disaster plan ready in case a storm comes their way. Make sure that your own family and friends are aware of the dangers of hurricanes, and share with them the safety tips you have learned.
