Prepare, Predict, Protect: The 2025 Hurricane Extension Pack Has Landed
As Atlantic hurricane seasons grow longer and storms intensify, crisis and emergency managers need more than situational awareness, they need decisive clarity. D4H's 2025 Hurricane Extension Pack is a pre-built set of status boards and checklists designed to transform how you plan, respond, and recover from hurricanes.
Turn Forecasts Into Actions With SLOSH Risk Integration
Surge is silent—but deadly. Our new Sea, Lake, and Overland Surge from Hurricanes (SLOSH) Risk Assessment status board gives you real-time visibility into projected flood zones using official SLOSH data. As storm advisories evolve, D4H allows users to update and record water depth projections, overlay impacted critical infrastructure, and flag surge thresholds by zone. Color-coded dashboards let you instantly assess what’s at risk and what decisions need to be made next.
Eliminate Evacuation Guesswork With Clearance Time Trackers
Evacuation doesn’t start with a press release, it starts with knowing exactly how long it takes to move your people to safety. Our evacuation planning status board lets you compare evacuation times by zone against the expected arrival of tropical storm-force winds. Need to activate a phased evacuation? Facing a shadow evacuee scenario? D4H helps users identify timing conflicts before they become operational failures.
Command With Confidence Using the HURRA Dashboard
Inspired by the legacy of HURREVAC and elevated through D4H innovation, the HURRA Dashboard (Hurricane Unified Response & Readiness Assessment) is your all-in-one storm dashboard. View forecast tracks, surge overlays, evacuation timing, and shelter load—all in a single screen. The system supports users in planning your response posture and allows for a risk color rating—green for safe, amber for caution, red for immediate action required.

Align With Federal Support via HLT Decision Tracking
When FEMA’s Hurricane Liaison Team (HLT) gets involved, coordination becomes critical. The 2025 Hurricane Extension Pack includes a HLT Decision Support Tracker to document advisories, call logs, federal risk guidance, and cross-jurisdictional recommendations. It creates a transparent, auditable chain from forecast to field-level action, ensuring you never miss a coordination beat.
Built-In Checklists for Every Stage of the Storm
To round it all out, we’ve included fully structured, customizable checklists for Before the Storm, During, and After. Fueling generators, activating public messaging, managing shelters, filing for FEMA reimbursement, your team can track every task in D4H, with completion timestamps and accountability built in.

Extension Packs are an easy way to enhance your incident management software. These free add-ons provide pre-built templates, forms, status boards, and task boards, allowing you to quickly deploy pre-built tools for specific incident types or industries. They also simplify the sharing of your custom Forms, Status Boards, and Task Boards with other agencies, allowing them to seamlessly integrate these into their own D4H Incident Management account, helping them get started with pre-configured templates. These packs can be downloaded from our website and installed directly into your D4H account, or custom Extension P4cks can be shared directly between organizations, making emergency management easier and more collaborative.
Status Boards
Status Boards allow you to build customizable and colorful boards to visually track information for any possible scenario in real-time. Configure rules, workflows, and forms to suit your specific needs. Each Status Board operates like a dynamic spreadsheet, with a configurable form behind each row. Whether you need to monitor facilities, shelters, risks, road closures, resources, or damage assessments, Status Boards provide a flexible and powerful tool for incident management.
