Mrs. Mealey

Be sure to fill your car gas tank with gas so you have enough to make an evacuation.

Make motel reservations as soon as possible in an area away from the hurricane path.

 

Dr. Burnett

Clean out the bathtub and fill with water to be available for general use if there is a loss of water during the storm.

 

Mrs. Burnett

Pack the freezer with bottles of fresh water to help keep the freezer cold if there is a power failure. They would also be a good source of drinking water when thawed, if there were a loss of water service. Also, do any work that requires electricity, before there is a loss of electric power.

 

Mrs. Zivan

Buy batteries for flashlights and radios in case of power failure.

 

Mr. Zivan

Put your valuables in a safe place.

 

Mrs. Elbert

Buy batteries, be sure to fill you gas tank on your cars, and stock up on fresh water.

Make plans for evacuation in case it becomes necessary.
