Set a quarter on top of a frozen cup of water. If you see the quarter has sunk to bottom then power has been off and food no good.
Line freezer with water bottles around the outsides, days prior to storm hitting. If you can get them frozen they will help keep the freezer temp longer. Don't open the fridge or freezer unless you need something, every time it's opened the temp rises. Plus if you are without power for days like we have been in the past, eventually you can use the frozen water bottles as ice to keep things in a cooler or just to drink because finding ice and or water could take a few days. :twocents
Good luck to you all !!
Hook up boat and all fishing tackle you can find room for. If additional room is available, grab favorite kid(s) wife optional and get the heck out of harms way.
Only joking fellows!!
Raccoon has a bomb shelter like basement. Little he realizes , I got the key to the door
Put a couple days worth of frozen food in a cooler, so you don't have to open the freezer.
Fill up the bathtub with water. You can use it to cook with if needed. I never understood doing that, if on a municipal water source, but in 1995 Hurricane Opal showed me differently. We ran out of water 10 days after landfall because power to the pumping station was still out.
Main thing: DO NOT run a gas powered generator indoors or in your garage. Seems like fairly common sense but it seems I hear about someone dying from CO poisoning every time a storm like this comes in.
