Essential tips for hurricane preparedness

: Natural News; 24 July 2024; Hits: 22

If you're worried about hurricane season, know that hurricanes are dangerous and can cause major damage. Also, note that hurricanes can happen along any U.S. coast or in any territory in the Atlantic or Pacific oceans. (h/t to Ready.gov)

Storm surge is an abnormal water level rise generated by a storm over and above the predicted astronomical tide. Historically, it is the leading cause of hurricane-related deaths in the United States.

Below are some tips to help you and your family prepare for a hurricane or a storm surge:

Know your hurricane risk

Remember that hurricanes are not just a coastal problem. Before SHTF, find out how rain, wind, water, or tornadoes could happen far inland from where a hurricane or tropical storm makes landfall.

Develop an emergency plan

When preparing for emergencies like hurricanes, you should inform everyone in your household about your emergency plan. Include the office, schools and anywhere else your family frequents in your hurricane plans.

Know your evacuation zone

If you live in an evacuation zone, the whole family should be prepared to evacuate quickly due to a hurricane. Prepare for a hurricane by learning your evacuation routes. Set aside some time so you can practice with your family and pets, and identify where you will stay.

Recognize warnings and alerts

Before disaster strikes, make sure you have several ways to receive alerts. Download the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) app and receive real-time alerts from the National Weather Service.

Prepping with disabled family members

Make sure you are prepared if you need additional help during an emergency if you or a family member has a disability.

Review important documents

Update your insurance policies and personal documents, such as IDs. Make copies and store them in a secure password-protected digital space.

Fortify your home

Before hurricane season, de-clutter drains and gutters, bring in outside furniture and consider hurricane shutters.

Prepare your devices

Get an emergency radio and keep your smartphone charged when you know a hurricane is in the forecast. Invest in backup charging devices to power your smartphone and other electronics.

Help your neighbors

If you can, ask your neighbors, the elderly, or others who may need additional help securing hurricane plans how you can help them.

Prepare your stockpile

Before any emergency, you should have enough supplies for your household. Don't forget to stock up on medication, disinfectant supplies and pet supplies.

Store supplies in your go bag or car trunk because if you need to evacuate, you may not have access to these supplies for days or weeks after a hurricane. (Related: The ultimate guide to foods that never spoil: Long-lasting prepping pantry staples.)

If you're not sure what to get, stock up on shelf-stable supplies like a variety of freeze-dried fruits and vegetables.
