Think about it. Talk about it.Have a meaningful conversation with the members of your household to discuss the following: 

• Do you have backup transportation methods and routes?
• Who will care for the kids, grandparents and pets if you are unable to get to them for several hours?
• Who in your neighborhood has medical skills, a generator, a chainsaw, or other important tools or resources?
• Do you have an out of state contact? Designate one person to be the main contact for your group of friends or family.
