With the California wildfires raging and not one but two hurricanes impacting the US this week (#2020), emergency preparedness is on many people’s minds.
Are you ready?
A new survey suggests not very.
They polled people in America’s 25 biggest cities…the results:
You probably have enough food but not enough water. 80% have enough canned goods to last for three days but 40% don’t have three days’ worth of water.
81% would have no way to communicate if cell service went down.
Just 26% have an agreed-upon meet-up place if the family gets separated.
47% of us don’t have an emergency evacuation kit or go-bag ready.
Only 16% have access to a generator.
The least-prepared city? Rochester!
Looks like we all have some work to do.
