Summary
Good360 President & CEO Cinira Baldi explains that relying on hope during hurricane season is not a viable strategy. The organization uses data and intelligence from AccuWeather's 2026 Atlantic hurricane forecast (predicting 11–16 named storms and 3–5 direct U.S. impacts) to proactively pre-position goods before storms make landfall, saving lives through preparedness rather than reactive response.
