Be aware of your surroundings and where you are relative to nearby trees and powerlines. Prepare for potential power outages. If you have a gas-powered generator, ensure you have enough fuel. Ensure you have batteries, flashlights, and a way to maintain a safe body temperature if you were to lose heating and cooling. Consider storing perishable refrigerated food items and/or medications in a large cooler filled with ice.
