 1 Emergency kit: Prepare an emergency kit that includes non-perishable food, water, and basic medical supplies. It's important to have enough supplies to last at least 72 hours.

 2 Weather radio: A weather radio is a battery-powered or hand-cranked device that can provide updates on weather conditions and emergency alerts. Keep a weather radio and extra batteries in your emergency kit.

 3 Flashlights and batteries: Keep flashlights and extra batteries in a easily accessible location in case of power outages.

 4 First aid kit: Prepare a first aid kit that includes bandages, antiseptic, pain relievers, and any other essential medical supplies.

 5 Whistle: Keep a whistle in your emergency kit, in case you need to signal for help.

 6 Water storage: Store enough water for each member of your household for at least three days. A good rule of thumb is to store one gallon of water per person per day.

 7 Important documents: Keep important documents, such as passports, birth certificates, and insurance policies, in a waterproof and fireproof container.

 8 Cash: Keep cash on hand in case ATMs and banks are not accessible.

 9 Cell phone charger: Keep a cell phone charger that can be powered by batteries or a car charger in case of power outages.

 10 Protective gear: Keep a helmet and sturdy shoes in your emergency kit to protect yourself from falling debris.
