Being ready for hurricane season may feel different this year for people in the Tampa Bay region. Your questions about handling the emotional ups and downs will be the focus of an upcoming episode of Florida Matters.

If you or someone you know is experiencing a mental health crisis, you can get help by calling 988 or visiting the lifeline website.

Hurricane season is always stressful. And it may weigh even heavier as you continue to recover from last year’s storms.

WUSF's Florida Matters wants to know how you are coping – and dealing with the unknowns as Hurricane Season arrives.
