🧰 What to do

Before

  • Know your evacuation zone and route; fuel your car early
  • Stock water (1 gal/person/day for 3+ days), food, batteries, cash
  • Bring in outdoor furniture; board or shutter windows

During

  • Evacuate if ordered; otherwise shelter in an interior room
  • Stay away from windows; don't go out during the calm eye
  • Never run a generator indoors or in a garage

After

  • Wait for the all-clear; watch for downed lines and floodwater
  • Most storm deaths happen after landfall — from water and cleanup
  • Use flashlights, not candles; document damage for insurance
