Each year, the official hurricane season for the Atlantic basin begins on June 1 and runs through November 30. This season was no different: Florida, Georgia, and South Carolina felt the effects of Hurricanes Milton and Helene. These natural disasters devastated power and electricity infrastructure with strong winds, hazardous rainstorms, and rising floodwaters. AFSCME Ohio Council 8 members from the Dayton area were proud to step up and provide much-needed relief.
