The first turbine towers and blades are beginning to go up some 500 feet into the air, although the potential for storms and windy conditions precluded any lifting Tuesday by the two giant cranes on the construction site. Cummins is supporting the wind farm expansion as part of its goal to encourage the development of low carbon energy.

Earlier in the season, we shared ways you could start to prepare for hurricane season. In the face of imminent severe weather, there are still a number of ways to prepare now before a storm hits.

1. Never leave an animal in a parked vehicle. Cars heat up very quickly, and as the temperature rises, your pet runs the risk of suffering from heat exhaustion or a fatal heat stroke. Also, leaving animals in cars is illegal in several states. 2. Keep your pets hydrated. Dogs can become dehydrated very quickly, so make sure they have access to plenty of fresh, clean water when it’s hot outdoors. You can even add ice cubes to their water. Regularly check to make sure their bowl still has water. 

Cummins recently announced that it is returning to stock car competition, with the company inking a three race deal to sponsor the No. 14 Ford driven by Clint Bowyer of Stewart-Haas Racing (SHR) in the Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series.
