On Tuesday, May 8, 2007, WFO Miami WCM Rob Molleda formally presented Broward County with their updated StormReady sign and renewal sticker for 2006-2009.  The presentation was held at the regular meeting of the Broward County Commission in Fort Lauderdale at the Government Center on Andrews Avenue. 

The staff at the Broward County Emergency Management Agency have done an outstanding job fulfilling the NWS StormReady program requirements to ensure that Broward County can meet the challenge from any weather threat. Those threats not only include hurricanes, but also tornadoes, hail, damaging straight line winds, flash floods, rip currents and even fires.

All six counties in WFO Miami's area of responsibility have been StormReady renewed.  Full re-recognitions have already begun in 2008 with Collier and Miami-Dade Counties already having fulfilled the requirements for re-recognition through 2011.
