Are You Prepared for Severe Storms?
Thunderstorms, hurricanes, tornadoes, and nor’easters often lead to power outages and flooding as well as damage to trees and physical property. Communications, food, water and gasoline could be in limited supply. What can you do to be better prepared?
Our UConn Extension Disaster Education Network can help you prepare your emergency supply kit. Though pre-made emergency supply kits are available for purchase, they are often costly. They may include items you don’t need and lack those you do. You know your household’s needs best and can be sure to include the items you and your family will need.
