Being ready for emergencies means different things to different families, depending on your area of the country. The southeast, Florida, and the east coast are worried about hurricanes, although we seem to have been spared too many instances of hurricane damage since the historic storm period of 2003-2005. Families in the midwest don't worry about hurricanes, they worry about tornados and twisters. Families all over the nation, especially in the midwest, worry about flooding such as the historic flooding in the St. Louis area in the last couple of years. Folks out west contend with wildfires and the after-effects of severe dry weather.
Everyone Needs An Emergency Plan!
The common thread for everyone - whether you live in Florida, Texas, Colorado or California - is the need to have an emergency plan in place. Such plans provide guidelines for how to get through safely in the events of these unfortunate and unforeseen weather occurences.
