Emergency preparedness evacuation video excellent
Just read an excellent posting on disaster preparedness evacuation. The video is a MUST SEE. Very impressive- gives lots for viewers to consider. See below for more information.
May I suggest that the emergency preparedness checklist also include a CB radio for each car.
You can purchase these inexpensively but if there is an emergency evacuation, often the cell phones are jammed with others trying to make phone calls to loved ones. Additionally the emergency response staff will also need as much of that cell phone air time as possible. To help reduce the clutter on the cell phones AND stay in contact with other members of the household driving in a convoy with you have a CB radio. You can even on occasion pick them up at yard sales or always on eBay. IF you break down and the cell phones are jammed then you can call for help with a CB radio. IF you listen to channel 19 you will learn more about traffic conditions and ways to help make the evacuation transportation as smooth as it can be under the situation.
The site that you may want to check out regarding disaster prepardness information is Michael A. Pedrelli Insurance Agency Blog. He has some very good information from a number of different sites. His blog is located at: http://pedrelliinsurance.blogspot.com

All I ask is that everyone be respectful and sensitive of each other and that identifying information about a person who is not the author be limited to protect their privacy.
