Hurricane Season: What’s in your Go Bag?

Although forecasters predict a near-normal hurricane season, it’s important to be ready to evacuate should a major storm head your way. If you have only moments before leaving, grab these things and go!

• Medical supplies: prescription medications and dentures.
• Vision and hearing aids: hearing aids, screen readers, magnifiers, and canes.
• Disaster supplies: flashlight, batteries, radio, first-aid kit, bottled water, and non-perishable food.
• Clothing and bedding: a change of clothes and a sleeping bag or bedroll and pillow for each household member.
• Car keys and keys to the place you may be going (friend’s or relative’s home).
• Cash, checks, change, and credit cards.
• Tech tools: phones, tablets, laptops, and chargers.
