Hurricane Season 2024
June 1st is the start of hurricane season.
We all need to be ready more than ever for any storms that enter the Gulf of Mexico. Now is the time to plan and ensure you have your supplies and techniques.
Here are 12 items you may need to be prepared for the season:
•1. Your medications
•2. Copies of your Home Owners Insurance Policy
•3. Copies of your Flood Insurance Policy
•4. Copies of your Health Insurance Policy
•5. Copies of the Evacuation Route you're planning on taking
•6. Back up communication plan. Remember, Cell Phones have not worked in the past during hurricanes.
•7. Have additional email accounts. Use Yahoo or Gmail to stay in touch.
•8. Back up your computer data NOW!
•9. Service your automobile. Change the oil and tires if required.
•10. Tell your family members the area you're planning to go to.
•11. Pack your family photos in plastic containers if you remove them when you evacuate.
12. Refrigerators- During most Hurricanes, homes will lose electricity. Many refrigerators will be lost. The clean-up is tough. One way to cut down on refrigerator clean-up is to place the contents in plastic garbage bags in the refrigerator before you leave. Also, consider freezing a cup of water in the freezer. Place a coin on top of the frozen water(ICE). If the coin is somewhere other than the top when you return, you know the food in the freeze-thaw.
