Hurricanes are a common occurrence in the Gulf Coast during hurricane season starting June 1 through November 30. In hurricane season, there are supplies that should be included when preparing a hurricane survival kit.
A hurricane survival kit is recommended for safeness and preparation and includes water, food, household items and health essentials. If you own a pet, their care items should be packed as well.
“Because of the nature of disasters, we don’t always see them coming,” said Roger Swartz, Keesler Office of Emergency Management planning specialist. “Staying prepared is paramount because once the event happens, you can’t just run to the store. They can occur at any time of day.”
Here is a checklist of items recommended by the Mississippi Department of Transportation for a a survival kit.
