While the 2020 Atlantic Hurricane Season progresses, electrical crews and the American Red Cross are getting ready to respond if needed.
"Hurricane season doesn't pause for a pandemic or any other reason," Rachel Nelson with the American Red Cross Central Florida said.
Nelson says their work will look a lot different. Disaster crews are the first ones on the ground during any disaster. They're taking COVID-19 precautions to protect themselves and the people they go to help.
"Temperature screening, they do have to wear masks, they do have to social distance. This is a unique year, this is a unique hurricane season," Duke Energy spokesperson Ana Gibbs said.
Extra layers of protection could slow their response times. Their base camp is ready to house over 3,000 staff and personnel, but they'll be put in micro staging sites to limit exposure.
