Keep some cheap flashlights in the shelter you don t want high output lights in there there is no need and they will be hard on your eyesight. Might not be a bad idea to stock a strobe light as well. When the storms clear there will be aircraft overhead checking out the damage.

Tarps, ropes and trash bags. Salvage ops start when the storm passes.

Hiviz signal panel. Ground to air signal guide. Helos once again.

A plan of action. If your plan is run to the shelter mins before the storm hits you are already in trouble. Keep the First aid, money, meds, and guns. Together in your house if the skies get dark move them to the shelter. Also know what you got to get out. Your child's favorite stuffed animal, your grandfather s pocket knife your wedding photos your computer. Know what to get as you move to the shelter. And make sure someone knows you have a shelter and are moving to it. If you don t make contact in x amount of time they send help. This person needs to be outside of the storm area.

Plan for the worst hope for the best.
