The American Red Cross is getting ready to respond to potential destruction by Hurricane Dorian, as the storm continues to grow stronger.

Five Indiana Red Cross volunteers are currently in Florida or getting ready to leave. Hurricane Dorian continues to intensify as it heads northwest toward the U.S. mainland. As of now, Hurricane Dorian is expected to make landfall as a Category 4 in Florida on Monday night or early Tuesday morning. A key concern is that this is a slow-moving storm that could produce several days of dangerous weather. Residents in Florida and surrounding states, like Georgia and South Carolina, should ensure they have their hurricane plan in place and are prepared for severe weather conditions, including strong winds, heavy rainfall and storm surge.
