For those not leaving: Fill your sinks and bathtubs (freshly cleaned of course) with water. You may need it if water gets shut off and likely will if your area gets hit. Make sure you’ve got fresh batteries and flashlights. Get a box of gallon sized ziplock bags to keep things dry. Clean socks in a gallon size ziplock bag and a couple of pairs of shoes (if you can get them in ziplock bags that’s great). Get all your important paperwork together and put it in a ziplock bag. Throw some packaged snacks in a ziplocks bag. Enough to last a couple of days. Pet food if you have pets. Leashes or pet carrier. Backpack or gym bag. Wallet with drivers license, SS card, cash. Wear that on your body. Clothing that drys quickly and is easy to pack and light to carry. A jacket with a hood to keep the sun off of you if you have to walk a long way or are stranded outdoors somewhere. Water. Bottled water. Buckets of water. Any containers you can fill and safely keep fresh, clean water.
If you have time, cook the food in your freezer. It can keep in your freezer for a day or two without electricity after it’s been cooked. After the storm keep your doors locked especially at night. It gets real dangerous when you can’t call anyone for help and there’s no utility or emergency services. Heed this last warning. Evacuate if you have the opportunity.
