gallons
of water for each person per day..
Stockpile enough to last for

gallons

Start

place at home. Take as much as you
can with you during evacuation.

a pet carrier in the correct size
for your pet in advance of the storm,
plan ahead.
- Have
a secure leash
and collar for all dogs and use
it.
- Do
NOT
let your cat out
of the car
to go to the bathroom. Use
a cat litter box inside the car.
The cat may panic and escape
if let out. Keep cat in a
cage.

book allows, buy the biggest
generator you can afford

in your home.

travel. Take commode liners

paper and wipes in your car. You
just never know.
- It is my understanding
that in SC you can take a concealed
weapon in your vehicle for your
protection. Check
with the police to verify this.
It must be out of site.
Make sure the safety is on
and you have had instruction by
an expert as to how to operate this
weapon. Be sure your ammunition
is fresh and kept dry. Check
to see what other states require
now.
Check with your local authorities
for more information.
- Do not drink
alcohol
or too much caffeine. You must keep your
mind clear.
- Take all jewelry
with you packed in a money belt
under your clothes, not in your
purse.
- Take your computer
with you, if possible. If

thing. Just take the computer
itself, not all the screens, printers,
scanners, etc.

music and information back up discs
that are important to you.
- Pack neck pillows
and blankets

your home to show insurance agents
so they can determine you losses.
Take BEFORE
and
AFTER

your neighbors,
friends and family
where and what roads you will be
using to get to a safe place. Tell
them your plans. If possible,
tell them the phone
number
where you can be reached.
- Try
to avoid traveling at night.
- If
you have elderly/disabled
family members or friends in nursing
homes or elsewhere, make sure that
they have a way to evacuate.
- If
possible, have sleeping bags
for each family member. You
may have to sleep in some places
that are other than ideal.
- If
you have bikes, take them
with you, they could be your
only mode of travel in long traffic
lines, food lines or water lines.
Also, you might run out of
gas.

if you leave.

your area. They may be closed

and when to go.
- If you don't want
to go to the shelters, make reservations
as soon as you can so you will have
somewhere to go. Make sure the
hotel has a generator.
- Store water to flush
toilets in your home, enough for 3 weeks.
- Take your doctor's
and other family's phone numbers with
you.
- Purchase rubber gloves
and protective breathing masks from
your drugstore and put in car..
- Stockpile candles,
oil burning lamps, oil, wood for fireplaces.
- Proper clothing for
3 weeks.
- Cleaning materials
to wash your clothes.
- Stock pile gas for
your cars outside away the home in
proper storage cans made for gas.
- If you are forced
to have to use the bathroom along the
side of the road in a traffic jam, just
have someone hold their coat or blanket
up for some privacy and just go and
don't worry about it.
- Stockpile tarps to
use on roofs or anything that leaks.
- For elderly or impaired
people and children you might
also take with you a bedpan,
female urinal and male
urinal for use in the car.
- Restaurants will
be closed. Plan for it.
- Gas Stations will
run out of gas and stores will be closed.
Plan for it.
- Be cautious
with any strangers you meet.
- Evacuation routes
may be
clogged
with hours in traffic. Plan
for it.
- If using a shelter,
make sure the shelter is properly staffed
and there are stockpiles of food, a
generator and water present.
- If confronted by
police,
ask for their identification. Be
sure they really are who they say they
are.
- Try to
control your
impatience and behavior. These
will be very stressful times.
- If
your car should break
down
or run out of gas on the road. Stay
in your locked car until the police
arrive.
- Get
tranquilizers
for your pets, if needed, from your
veterinarian. Follow instructions
as to usage.
- Try
to take
rain gear and
umbrellas
for each person.
- Don't forget
to bring water for pets,
food, kitty litter, dishes, etc.
- If possible,
team
up with
some of your neighbors or friends
and travel together. There
is safety in numbers.
- If possible,
put any jewelry
that you can not live without in
a safety deposit box at your bank.
- Do not waste
your time and gas waiting in
line for ice. You can live
without it. If you have stored
water as you should have, you will
be fine. Some stores will
most likely be open, using generators
within a few days. If you
have a bike, you might do better
trying to get around with it rather
than your car.

Don't wait until
the last minute to buy this items. Stores will
run out, banks will close and it will be easier on the budget if you
buy these a little at a time during non hurricane
months.
