2023 has two separate two-week tax-free holiday periods this year!
There will be two separate two-week holiday periods this year. The first begins on Saturday, May
27, 2023, and ends on Friday, June 9, 2023. The second holiday period begins on Saturday,

These are NOAA’s predictions for the Atlantic hurricane season this year.
“NOAA is forecasting a range of 12 to 17 total named storms (winds of 39 mph or higher). Of those, 5 to 9 could become hurricanes (winds of 74 mph or higher), including 1 to 4 major hurricanes (category 3, 4 or 5; with winds of 111 mph or higher). NOAA has a 70% confidence in these ranges.” NOAA stands for: National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.

Hurricane forecasts begin May 15 this year. June 1, 2023 is the first day of the official #HurricaneSeason. Are you prepared?
