A Simple Hurricane Season Checklist

Hurricane season runs June through November. The calmest families are the ones who get ready early, before the store shelves empty.

Water and food

Store at least three days of water and non-perishable food for everyone in the house, pets included.

Light and power

Flashlights, fresh batteries and a charged power bank are worth more than candles.

Medications

Keep a two-week supply of daily medications and a list of prescriptions.

Important papers

Put insurance policies, IDs and phone numbers in a waterproof bag.

Know your zone

Look up your local evacuation zone and route now, while the weather is nice.
