More than 62,000 customers are already without power in Louisiana as Tropical Storm Barry approaches

FEMA's public service campaign Ready shared advice on how to prepare for a hurricane, as well as how to stay safe during and after a storm. On Twitter, FEMA told residents to bring people and pets indoors and secure outdoor objects, and close and lock doors, windows, air vents and fireplace dampers.

In the case of high winds, take shelter in a FEMA safe room or ICC 500 storm shelter -- or, if you're staying at home, move to a small, windowless interior room or a hallway on the lowest floor that's not at risk of flooding. Don't wade through flood water -- you could be injured by debris, or shocked by submerged power lines.
