Organizers are hosting Disaster Preparedness Day on Saturday, June 6, 2026, at Lowe’s, 1490 MS-15, Laurel, Mississippi, to help residents learn how to prepare for storms and other emergencies, a Facebook post said.

The post said attendees can connect with local preparedness resources. It did not specify a schedule or which agencies will participate.

Preparedness events like this aim to give residents practical information about creating family emergency plans, assembling basic emergency supplies and understanding local warning systems. Mississippi communities regularly face severe weather, including storms and flooding, making preparedness efforts a priority for many residents and local officials.

The event takes place at the Lowe’s store in Laurel, a city in Jones County in southeastern Mississippi. Organizers encouraged residents to attend and learn more about steps they can take before emergencies occur. We will provide more information as it becomes available.
