Disasters can happen anytime and anywhere. Sure, there are some areas that are much more likely than others to experience a disaster, but with weather patterns being very unpredictable and record temperatures being recorded all the more often, being prepared just makes sense. So what should you do to make sure that you’re ready for anything that nature throws at you?
Many have chosen to have clearly defined places to escape to in case of an emergency, sometimes different depending on what type of disaster they’re dealing with. Another good idea is to have a “Go-bag” prepared and near an exit for a quick getaway when necessary. It should contain all the essentials that you need to survive for a few days.
If you want to make sure that your house is still standing when you get back, and you have time before the disaster strikes, turning off your water, gas, and electricity supply can save your home from likely destruction.
