Hurricane Sandy is on her way! You can never be too organized or prepared for a natural disaster. Here are some quick tips to help you be ready to go once the storm hits:
- Get up to a two week supply of emergency equipment
- Make a hurricane kit; If it’s portable, even better! (food, water, can opener, first aid kit, weather ready clothing/shoes, batteries, blankets, medicines, ect.)
- Make sure you are aware of all evacuation routes
- Evaluate what you need versus what you want
- Make a list of emergency contacts and family information
- Keep a copy of all certificates (birth, marriage, auto, home, etc.)
- Move irreplaceable items to a safe place where they cannot be destroyed
Remember to be as safe as possible when dealing with any natural disaster. Tangible items can be replaced but our loved ones can’t.
