The Atlantic hurricane season runs from June 1 to October 31. If a storm threatens, will you and your family be ready? If you start preparing today, you can be.
Add to your shopping list any special supplies and foods needed for infants and the elderly. These might include:- Formula
- Baby food
- Diapers for infants in the family
- Adult diapers for elderly family members
- Nutritian drinks
- Medications
Even if the power stays on, these items may be in short supply immediately before and after a storm. Again, disaster planners suggest a three- to seven-day supply.
