The most important thing is to avoid outdoor travel as much as possible and stay safe inside your home. The ideal is to have a battery-powered radio to receive emergency alerts and instructions, especially in the event of an evacuation.
Tie objects securely outside to prevent them becoming dangerous projectiles. Bring an emergency kit with bottled water, non-perishable food, medications, flashlights, batteries, warm clothes, blankets and your important documents. If you are in a risk area, you may be forced to travel to evacuation centers.
