Stay Informed: Monitor weather reports and updates from reliable sources such as the National Weather Service and local news.

Protect Important Documents: Store important documents such as identification, insurance policies, and medical records in a waterproof container.

Stock Up on Supplies: Ensure you have sufficient supplies of essential items, such as prescription medications, baby supplies, and pet food.
