Hurricane Preparation Checklist for Subtropical Storm Nicole 2022

  1. Stock Up

    Grocery stores empty out when a storm is on it’s way! It is important to make sure you have everything you need early during Hurricane season! Here is our Supply List…

    1.Water — one gallon per person per day and enough for at least 3 days

    2. Food — at least a 3-day supply of non-perishable, easy-to-prepare food

    3. Flashlight

    4. GENERATOR

    5. Battery-powered or hand-crank radio

    6. Extra batteries

    7. First aid kit

    8. At least a 7 day supply of medications and any medical items you may need (ex. hearing aids with extra batteries, glasses, contact lenses)

    9. Sanitation and personal hygiene items

    10. Copies of personal documents (medication list and pertinent medical information, proof of address, deed/lease to home, passports, birth certificates, insurance policies)

    11. Cell phone with chargers (We recommend portable chargers!)

    12. Family and emergency contact information

    13. Extra cash

    14. Baby supplies (bottles, formula, baby food, diapers)

    15. Pet supplies (collar, leash, food, carrier, bowl)

    16. Extra Blankets and Pillows

    17. Clean Clothes (especially rain gear)

2. Prepare Your Home

  1. Remove outdoor items

  2. Trim dead branches from trees

  3. Install shutters or board up windows

  4. Fill up gas tanks and have extra!

  5. Move furniture away from windows

  6. Store important documents in waterproof containers/folders

  7. Unplug small appliances and turn off propane tanks.

  8. Turn the refrigerator to the coldest setting so your food will last longer in the event of a power outage. Put a few water bottles in your freezer to act as ice packs if the power goes out.

  9. Fill your bathtub with water. (If you lose power you can use it to flush your toilet)

3. Review Your Home Insurance Policy

  1. Call your insurance to figure out what you have protected!

  2. Take photos of the house before the storm!

4. Evacuation Plan
