Prepare for Hurricanes
With Isaac barreling toward Florida, it is timely to revisit the items your home needs to be prepared for the worst. Go to the grocery store and stock up on the following items:
- Bottled water: Figure on about 4 gallons per person;
- Batteries of all sizes;
- Paper goods, like paper plates, paper towels, and disposable utensils;
- Canned foods that are ready to eat, like canned tuna, chicken, chili, soup, and don’t forget a can opener;
- Other ready to eat food like peanut butter, cookies, crackers, chips, bread;
- First aid kit;
