It&#8217;s a good idea to put together an emergency kit to grab at a moment&#8217;s notice. Store your basic emergency kit in a waterproof container, and remember to include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Flashlights<\/strong>\u00a0for each person in your family and extra batteries.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Battery-operated<\/strong>\u00a0<strong>radio<\/strong>\u00a0with weather band and extra batteries.<\/li>\n<li><strong>First aid kit<\/strong>\u00a0and manual.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Credit cards<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Work gloves<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Duct tape<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Sleeping gear<\/strong>, including pillows, blankets, sleeping bags, air mattresses or cots.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Basic hand tools,\u00a0<\/strong>such as a hammer, nails, screwdriver, wrench and hatchet.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Important papers\u00a0<\/strong>such as drivers\u2019 licenses, special medical information, insurance policies, personal belongings inventories, titles and social security cards.<\/li>\n<li><strong>List of phone numbers<\/strong>\u00a0and addresses for emergency services, shelters, physicians, family and friends outside your area.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4>You&#8217;ll also want to build a survival kit with the following items:<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Food:\u00a0<\/strong>Store at least a two-week supply of non-perishable foods and special dietary foods, if necessary. Store a manual can opener with the food supply.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Drinking water:\u00a0<\/strong>Have at least one gallon per person per day for two weeks.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Two coolers:<\/strong>\u00a0One for food, the other to hold ice. Ice is a precious commodity before and after a storm.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Plastic tarp:<\/strong>\u00a0Use for roof or window repair.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Water purification tablets:<\/strong>\u00a0plain chlorine and iodine.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Prescription medicines:\u00a0<\/strong>Have at least a four-week supply.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Infant necessities:\u00a0<\/strong>Have a supply of diapers, formula and plastic bags.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Extra clothing:\u00a0<\/strong>Pack shoes and a spare pair of eyeglasses.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Cash<\/strong>: With no power, banks may be temporarily closed, checks and credit cards may not be accepted, and ATMs may not be in operation.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Camera,<\/strong>\u00a0with film or video recorder.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Make sure everyone in your family knows where the kits are kept.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Review your emergency plan with your family and post the written plan. Children may be at school and adults at work when the storm hits. Have a plan for getting back together. Ask an out-of-state relative or friend to serve as the \u00abfamily contact.\u00bb<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"Build an Emergency Preparedness Kit\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/I1-DC3foLNA?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" class=\"lazyload\" data-load-mode=\"1\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>by The Foremost Creative Team<\/p>\n<p>https:\/\/www.foremost.com\/learning-center\/more-storms-to-come-during-hurricane-season.asp<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Be prepared: Put together emergency items before severe weather strikes.
