This will be my 2nd hurricane season here (lucked out last year minus all the rain). Anyways I just want to make sure I did the right thing last year
I was living alone (now with wife).
I bought about 20 cans of food and other dried foods
had 2 cases of water plus 2 gallon jugs
all important document were in an easy to grab case
Car was never less than 1/2 tank full
Lots of flashlights and batteries on hand, I also have a lantern.
In event of hurricane hitting:
Fill bath tub with water
Cover Windows (I live in an apartment so I'm not sure if management would do this?)
Keep blankets in car.
I know I should have had more cash on hand if I needed to leave or atms were down. I am sure I missed something as well.
Some things I need to get for this year:
More food/h2o as now wife lives here too
more dog food (now have a dog)
battery powered radio
More surge protectors for when power comes back on (we generally unplug everything in the event of a power outage but this is probably still good)
C&C encouraged. Thank you!
