Answer 1

The most important thing to prepare for a storm is knowing were to go in case you need to evacuate. If the later is not a possibility then create and practice a plan of action for you and your family and build and emergency kit with first-aid supplies, water and nonperishable foods. After that you can focus on identifying the safest place in your house, establish an emergency communication channel with your family and reinforce the roof, windows and doors. Secure the heavy furniture to avoid accidents and move it away from door and windows and keep tuned to your local radio station to know how to expect at every time.
