I saw a suggestion of filling your washing machine to the top with ice cubes and storing drinks & such in the ice. Apparently it will keep them refrigerated for a long time and as the ice melts it just goes down the drain.
I have no proof that this works.

Isn't that redundant, or can you buy fresh Spam?

Milk eggs and bread sounds like everybody is eating French toast.

No...but I once saw Spam in foil packages like those tuna snack packs.

Last hurricane I didn't go to the grocery. My other half sent a box from Amazon with everything I needed, with staples that did not need to be cooked or refrigerated, including bread.

Gas BBQ grill will take the place of your electric stove and you'll be able to cook eggs, etc. One year in south Fla after a hurricane when we didn't have power or a gas grill and we were really missing a good breakfast we went out looking for restaurants that had power and could find none. I got the idea that hospitals would have power for sure. We went to JFK hospital in Atlantis ( W. Palm Beach area) and had a great breakfast in their cafeteria since they make their own power or would be the highest priority for restoration.

Been in The Villages for over 18 years. Never lost power except for a very short period maybe three times. Don't worry, be happy.

Take a close look at your washing machine. The water needs to be pumped UP to the drain.

One daughter told me to hide in the bathtub for safety. The other daughter told me to fill it with water. Evidently the hurricane won't get me, I will just drown in the bathtub.

The state and local emergency services sites will have suggested lists.
One think I had not though of before is to put your computer files on the cloud. I am concerned about the safety of the info but maybe put it up before the Huricane and take it down after. Be sure to include insurance info, and copies of important documents. |
