Have you ever been in a Hurricane or major storm? What where the best items that came in handy during this emergency situation? Thanks so much for sharing!
Ice storm of 98 no power for 13 days. General store opened taking cash.
Superstorm Sandy (NJ)...prepared as we were, we had no seasoned firewood. We had not used the chimney since the 80s. The storm hit at the end of October and our focus was keeping warm. I always tell people that when you know a hurricane is approaching, get a haircut, do all your laundry, wash all your dishes, and sleep on your 1st floor. My neighbor had an oak tree fall on his roof. I'd also suggest a purchasing a USB fan or two. Other items: baby wipes (or McKesson wipes), no-rinse shampoo, and a manual laundry washer (Wonder Wash) or similar hand-made system.
Great point, brother 😎🤘
Some great suggestions @ShoreSkeptic 😁👍
Hurricane Hugo and the blizzard in 93. The blizzard is the reason I started keeping extra things on hand. I had two small kids at the time and we thought it would be fun to hunker down with my parents. By the time the roads had been plowed and any stores opened, we were down to 3 cans of soup and a half a box of vanilla wafers to split between 5 people. I started with making sure we had two weeks of everything stocked and built up from there.
I have a few hand pumps for indoor flooding as well as sandbags in my little shed, because I learned years ago everyone is on the same mission as you are when looking for stuff like sandbags, plywood, food, water and gas and it all disappears really quick!
I have a shop vac that I've used to remove standing water, but a hand pump is a great idea, especially if you don't have any power sources. 😁👍
I found I could keep my freezer cold by filling ziploc gallon bags with ice and packing them into the freezer, stopping my food from spoiling. I got ice from local stores when my power was out. Also sterno, grill, charcoal etc for cooking and maybe a butane camping stove and fuel.
Awesome! Thanks for sharing 😁👍
I'm prepping my pup and all her needs. I suggest that anyone who buried any assets, like PMs, need to consider flooding. It would be tragic to have something important get washed away by flooding.😬
That's truly a great suggestion, JT! Thanks so much for sharing! God bless and stay safe! 💛🙏😊
We left Florida just after the worst of Hurricane Irma passed.. It was hotter than hades with the heat and no power!!! I recommend a non-electric fan!!
Absolutely, the heat is horrible 🥵
Airline approved travel crates for each pet. Crate all pets before the wind noise starts. Small battery operated fans for each person and pet with enough batteries or power to run for 2 weeks continuously. Freezer full of gallon water jugs, 2.5 gallon water jugs. After hurricane Irma my neighborhood had no power for two weeks. Local stores had nothing. The heat was the worst part of it.
The heat is definitely one of the worst aspects. The high pressure comes in after the storm moves out, and the heat & humidity are awful!
Never ever crate your pets. They cannot escape a fire or in case of any other emergency. Cruel. Put a full harness on your pet. Have your rabies tag on your pet. Your Identification on your pet. And Cat 4 or 5 take a sharpie and write ur cell number and your last name on your dogs belly. I rescue dogs after hurricanes for over 30 years. 90% of them never make it back to their owners if lost. Microchips are proven to cause cancer but they do help with pet return. We all have wands to read them at this point. Our pets are all on leashes through our arms in the safe room. 6 dogs and a cat and 20 normal rescues per year
I live in an oceanview condo in South Carolina and we deal with a lot of hurricanes. As a single mom of 2 autistic kiddos, I have found that a portable dvd player with a wide variety of movies (I buy a lot of dvds for .10 each @ our local Salvation Army store so we always have something new to watch) and some puzzles, simple games, etc, has been a lifesaver. I have several small power banks( I have the HALO brand) that keep the dvd player charged very well. They also work well for a couple small fans so we don't roast. I have a small solar generator to charge the power banks.
Excellent idea. I definitely have to give the kids some entertainment, keeping some sense of normalcy going.
I ripped cds to a solid state external drive so I can play it through the phone on a USB speaker.
Glow sticks are nice to have to put on stairs in a stairwell/staircase. Frees up one’s hands to carry other needful things.
Great suggestion! Thank you. 😁👍
Yes, hurricanes 🌀 ...water, flashlight, batteries, portable stove, grill, gas, non-perishable food, first aid, radio, game cards, baby wipes, tarps, sand bags, list of emergency phone.can opener, personal hygiene items, extra pair of glasses. Documents
Extra glasses is one I didn't think of, also the idea of writing down phone numbers maybe laminating it and keeping in your preparation kit is another smart idea as if your phone was dead, lost, or damaged. Thanks for sharing your ideas. 😊🙏
Great list, clear and concise. Can't think of anything to add. Thanks, Grey!🎉😊
Thanks so much, Cherie! 😊
I live in the Coastal South, evacuate is #1, then a way to stay cool because you remember the 2 weeks w/o power more than the storm. It's hot as balls
The heat is definitely an issue, I finally have a solar/ battery-powered AC unit. And a few battery and USB powered fans.
Good list! I make sure to have a good supply of large (contractor size) trash bags - good for cleanup also helps cover things if you run out of tarps during the storm.
Contractor bags are definitely a must! Thanks Sherry 😊
I listened to this twice and read all of the comments. I took notes and I’m happy to say I’m prepared as well as can be.
That's great to hear, and thank you so much for the support! 😊🙏
I always like seeing a printed or downloadable list. It gives me a starting place that I can add/subtract from, besides a blank page. Blank pages and I don't get along.
We live right on the Texas coast and took the direct hit from Harvey (Cat4) in 2017. I work in local government and was part of the EOC and recovery. Great list and video. One thing that I learned is that having all of these things is great but you MUST check/refresh/update your kit on a regular basis. May people here had generators but they had not been doing (pm) maintenance so when they needed it to work, they couldn't get it started. Regularly check/refresh anything in your kit that can go 'bad'. Also, land mobile radio saved the day. I highly recommend ham radio: get the basic training and license. A gmrs/frs set of radios for each family member is also helpful for 'local' family comms. Thanks for the video. Keep up the good work.
Great points! Thanks so much for sharing your thoughts and experience.
These are great tips Grey and I think folks should apply these to any place that has hazardous storms. If you live in an are prone to blizzards and so on add supplies accordingly 🤗
You are absolutely correct. This can apply to many scenarios. Have a wonderful evening, Mildred 😊 🙏
@@GreyManPrepping Thanks Grey!
Grey you forgot comfort food candy. Just kidding your list is helpful. Not only in hurricane situations but snow storms are even severe anything storm. Thank you. God Bless 🙏❤️🙏
🤣 lol, and yep lists like this can apply to many situations. You just have to add soke things in climates that experience blizzards vs. tropical systems.
We have been through many hurricanes including 2 cat 3 direct hits. The first thing is to have a plan. When will you evacuate, what to take, etc. Then execute thst plan. No second guessing because you have a plan.
Absolutely! It all starts with a plan, and having everyone in the home familiarized with that plan. 😁👍
I have only been in one hurricane but it was Katrina! l was in mid Texas hwy I 10 was non stop traffic gas was scarce and stores were wiped out within a few hours so I would tell people even if you yourself are not in the path but people who are are driving away from one you too will be affected so have a supply of extra food, water ,medicine, fuel and the things you require for several days.
This is an excellent point. Thank you for sharing this, Tammy! 🙏
Thanks so much for the info you provided in this video! I sent a link to this video to my sister down in Spring Hill, Fl. Hopefully she'll understand the importance of this as she is new to Florida.
Awesome, I have some family over that way. Thanks so much for your continued support 😊🙏
@@GreyManPrepping Really, that's good to know in a worst case scenario. Blessings to you and your family Grey
@@GardeningWithCrystal Thank you!
I've lived from the tip of Maine to Homestead FL, Okinawa Japan & Korea, I've been through most extreme weather conditions. Huricanes for Andrew in Homestead & the 4 2004 Hurricanes in Orlando. I'm still finding new things to add to my list. I would add a solar generator to keep things running during the storm, if the power goes out you are not going to be able to run your gas/propane generator until the storm passes. Pick the size you can afford & upgrade latter.
My next suggestion is to invest in tents. For snow storms put it in a room when power goes out. The smaller confines will keep your body heat & what ever you are using to produce heat in. For Hurricanes i would suggest a free standing tent that atgaches to your vehicle. If you have to evacuate you can use it at rest areas or at family/ friends homes if they are short on room. Your vehicle will be full of gear & an attachable one will be extra space for adults, pets or gear & still let you have access to the vehicle.
Absolutely great advice! Thanks so much for sharing your thoughts on this topic. 🙏
Shared this out to my church, we live in Texas and some of the folks here don't get that we get hit and get hit hard sometimes. Lots of new folk in my church over the past few years. Our pastor is understanding the importance of being prepared after the big Texas freeze! Thanks for your time brother 🤘
That's great to hear. The more folks getting prepared, the better! God bless ya, and thanks for the support! 🙏
@@GreyManPrepping God bless you as well brother!
Again, hurricane veteran here. I would add pet needs and vaccination records, crates, meds and toys. Tarps for roofs. A way to boil water, be it grill, open fire, etc and items to cook in. If you don't have a ho.e inventory, which i recommend, walk thru and video everything. Open cabinets and drawers too. Board games, cards, and things to stay occupied after the main work is done. Also, if in doubt, get out. 15:27 27
Thank you, Susan, for sharing! Some really good points.
Good list,thank you GreyMan ❤️✝️
My pleasure, Raka 😊🙏
I love list videos 😆 because they pertain to general prepping most of the time. I need to get my documents in order and copies made. I never thought about that especially after seeing those tornadoes destroy all those homes over the past couple of months.
I'm glad you found this helpful, I'm a list person as well 😆👍
I found a company in the warehouse district and bought dry ice....a cheap life saver
Nice find! 😁
Hi Grey, I live in S Africa. Although I don't live is a hurricane area we have had a tornado here a few years back that damaged stores & homes, it was quite bad. I love this hurricane kit of yours it is very applicable. The only thing I've done differently is I scanned all my personal documents & put them on a flash drive, to save space because my ID, policies, medical, banks, etc. are just allot of paper. I also have a copy of all of that at my brother's in his safe, he lives about 160km away.
Honestly, that's a great idea, I really appreciate you sharing your thoughts on this topic. 😁👍
Thank you, I am a new subscriber but an old prepper & I find your videos very educational.
@Ali-prepper I truly appreciate that, and thanks so much for the support!
The best thing I can advise is to have a deep freezer. Have it as full as you can. including water.Make sure you keep the items covered. The held the cold in when you don't have power.
Great tips. Thanks for sharing! 😁👍
I would add the infamous toilet paper to your personal hygiene kit. I see comments about solar AC units. Wow. Didn't know they exist. Thanks.👍
Great point 😆
A tent to sleep outside and a mosquito tent to sit inside. They make these for large beds. This is what I use. I have solar for a window AC but if the sun doesn`t shine I have to conserve energy for my freezer.
Man, you hit it on the head, with the mosquito netting. They are so bad after storms.
Ummmm...as a 30 year resident of So Fl, i dont think you mentioned chips, chocolate, coffee and wine🤣🤣
🤣🤣 Sounds like my mom growing up in Key West, lol
Tarp added so that way u can put on leak on ur roof and it can be used for other creative things
Absolutely!
You can never have too many tarps!
@@ShoreSkeptic Agreed 😁👍
Your vehicle is a good charging system. Have correct chargers to fit your device. I pre-freeze coffee and tea for a change from just water.
Agreed, and thanks for sharing!
I blew through my 75 dollar stash of alkaline batteries trying to run little fans fast after hurricane Laura. The solution? Portable folding panels (60 to 100w) with multiple USB charging ports and the largest USB fan you can get. TIP: These panels can be plugged into the port on those D battery fans with a 5.5/2.1 cable from the 12v panel port.
Great info! Thanks 👍😁
@@GreyManPrepping The larger panels can power the USB fans even if it`s very cloudy. I ran one while it was raining on a lower setting.
@@baneverything5580 that's great to hear. 😁
@@GreyManPrepping Blackberries need picking but here in Louisiana right now you get bitten head to toe in 30 seconds of going outside unless you spray yourself down with wasp spray. I was just bitten all over filling a one gallon fermenter jar with water to make some ethanol to drink for a toothache with turbo yeast and an Air Still. I needed the spray nozzle on the hose to mix the sugar and add oxygen. I can`t imagine wading up into a blackberry patch with billions of huge swamp mosquitoes on my face. Mosquito spray doesn`t work here.
@@baneverything5580 Wow! 🤯
add ponchos or other rain jackets/rain pants because you may have to be outside in it. maybe even a reflective vest or high vis jacket that you could signal with as well as wear. mayybe a good pair of muck boots might also be a good choice. even if yu don't own a boat maybe some life jackets or other personal floatation items one would usually keeo in a boat would be a good idea if you have the spae to storee them but still keep them easily accessible
Great suggestions Kaylynn, thank you kindly for sharing your thoughts with everyone. Have a wonderful weekend. 😊🙏
Great video
Thanks so much, Michelle 😊🙏
Living in the PNW Winter storms you plan for primitive living. Plan for power outings, flooding,heavy snow removal, and huge trees falling due to snow or winds. Plan for the worst pray for the best.
That's all we can do 😊
Great advice. I am not in hurricane area but this would apply to tornadoes too. My son and his family are in hurricane area--not sure they are really prepared :(
Agreed, Sue, this would tp apply to most storm systems. It's been a wild year so far, and it's only halfway over. Stay safe, and have a good weekend. 😊🙏
If you can`t afford to buy a high quality AM radio and have a normal one....look up AM LOOP antennas. The AN-200 is good but you can build a much better one with a 365 tuning capacitor and 17 turns of 24 AWG magnet wire on a 16 inch pizza box. But you have to learn how now. Or just get the AN-200. You simply place it beside the radio and tune it to resonate with the station frequency. I made one from a pizza box and a giant one from a 4 ft solar panel box. You can connect these to a grounded long wire antenna too.
Very cool, I'll definitely look into this. 😁👍
@@GreyManPrepping AM radios buzz a lot from all the modern electronics but when the power is out they work much much better and you`ll be surprised by the increased reception range. So if you do get a nice AM receiver you`1ll have to take it way out in the woods as far away from homes and power lines as possible to see how great it is. The Sangean PR-D4W is great and one of the best besides the Crane ones.
@@GreyManPrepping Nothing worked here after Laura. AM was the only info source. I was the only person with critical info for the community because I had a long-range radio.
@@baneverything5580 Thanks for the info!
Thank you!
My pleasure 😁
THKS TENT OR BIG TARP
Tarps would definitely be handy!
Cards, board games, new toys for kids, sidewalk chalk ( can be used to leave messages after the storm has passed), working chainsaws, make sure you know how to crank generator and chainsaw, cash.
Sidewalk chalk is definitely a great idea, I never thought of using it that way. very cool.
I wouldn’t use sidewalk chalk, crayons! Chalk will wash away easily. Get the toddler crayons thicker and, sturdier!
waterproof rubber boots or those attractive white ones wal mart sells,the water here in my neighborhood is usually at least a foot deep,i had my car float away once,i swam after it and tied it to my neighbor's fence ,but those cooky hip wader duck hunting boots my dad had saved my ?:*" because there is always snakes and debris in the water
That's definitely something to add. Flood waters are usually filled with debris and, as you stated, creepy things. Snakes, gators, and the list goes on.
Great list Grey. I didn’t think about cash.
My pleasure. I'm glad you found it helpful. ☺️
Can't buy a meal or anything without cash after power goes out. Can't run credit cards or electronic scanners or registers. Cash only
Camille, Frederick, katrina, Ida, Ira, elena, george,
You sound like myself, who has been going through these storms since the late 70's
You can't list everything in a single video. Super important is heavy duty extension cords. You need to run generator away from the house, if you use a thin cord to run everything in your house you'll burn up the cord.
Great point, brother! My extension cords ran me about $100 or more for the good stuff 😆👍
I got some extension cords made for outdoor construction sites rated for high amps so I can use my solar for a good electric tiller, mower and other things just in case everything falls apart and there`s no gas or it`s too expensive. I went broke for two years after my truck was stolen and I swore if I ever had money again I`d get away from populated areas and get my own solar power supply, cookers I can use with solar, fruit trees, lots of seeds, lots of stored food, water distiller, survival tools/supplies, great radios, bucket water heaters, barter items, and all rechargeable batteries for everything.
Maybe have an axe or chainsaw for trees that fall in the yard.
Absolutely 😁👍
Get trees trimmed and thinned beforehand maybe you’ll have less trees falling! I just had 13 pines removed because they were a threat! Still have a bunch of trees, but they are less of a threat. You can’t prevent everything, but preparation is your best defense.
Tornado warnings. Hey Grey, what do you think the Prepping Preacher would think about what is going on?
In regards to all the storms or our country?
@@GreyManPrepping Our country Grey. He would be fit to be tied Skippy. Lol
@@girl4freedm89 🤣🤣 Absolutely lol God bless his soul 🙏 ❤️
Hey grey sent my email for winning one of the giveaways & wondering you got my email! Thanks again.
I got just about everyone's email. This weekend, I'll pack everything up and ship it out. Usually on Mondays but it's a holiday so it'll be on Tuesday. I'll email everyone back then with tracking numbers and a thank you. 😁
You are the best man! Keep up the great videos, we appreciate so much!
@bigdog5601 thank you 🙏
