Answer:

People should prepare for the worst (when the weather service predicts a

hurricane.)

Step-by-step explanation:

The sentence in which the underlined adverbial clause is punctuated correctly is option A.

An adverbial clause is a dependent clause which can also perform the functions of an adverb by modifying a verb, adjective or another adverb in a sentence.

The other two options are incorrect because they were missing either a comma or a semi colon and as such were not properly punctuated.
