With Hurricane Dorian expected to hit Florida as soon as Monday, The Weather Channel has rolled out another of its Immersive Mixed Reality (IMR) segments, which give viewers an up-close look at the devastating effects of major weather events.

This time, the network partnered with State Farm, integrating the insurance company into the segment about hurricane preparation.

Hosted by Weather Channel meteorologist Stephanie Abrams, the video—which first aired this morning—explains to audiences how to best prepare for a hurricane, starting from 48 hours out, up until just as the storm makes landfall.
