2 Your Go-Bag Your bag should be large enough to fit all of these essentials and durable enough that it can protect your items - literally. Look for a large duffel bag that is water proof and has pockets for organizing all of the little details you don't want to be without when you need to hit the road.

3 Important Documents: Come rain or shine, you definitely don't want your important documents (think: birth certificates, passports and the like) to be lost, or worse, destroyed. Keep them protected by making sure they're always together and in a flame- and water-proof container. Photos of family members and pets for identification purposes

4 Evacuation Routes: It's important to make sure you have an evacuation plan the whole family is aware of, and that it is clearly marked on some maps kept safely inside your "go" bag.

5 If your family gets separated or is split up between multiple vehicles, having cell phones will make keeping track of each other easy. In your "go" bag, store extra chargers so you don't have to worry about losing juice in the middle of a call or trying to send a text message.

6 Should the power go out all across Las Vegas. ATMs may not be working, and or difficult to get to. You want to have at least $100 in small bills at the ready.

7 FEMA recommends having enough food and water to last for three days for every family members. That includes roughly Two gallons of water per person for 3 days for both drinking and hygienic purposes. Stock up on shelf-stable, ready-to-eat food items like canned meats and vegetables, granola or protein bars, nuts, peanut butter, and non-perishable milk (think: nutrient-dense, high energy foods). And don't forget a manually-operated (not electric) can opener for your canned food as well as any utensils you may need.

8 The last thing you want to be doing when you're fleeing a storm is hunting for your spare keys. Keep an extra set of car and house keys in your "go" bag so you don't run around the house in full panic.

9

10 Hopefully you won't go long periods of time without access to food and water, but it's better to be prepared than to not have it when you need it. Pack several bottles of water (a general guideline is two gallons per person per day you expect to be gone) as well as non-perishable foods like granola bars.

11 Including a first-aid kit in your "go bag" almost goes without saying, but we'll say it anyway don't forget to have: the first-aid kit is a good place to keep a list of all family medications (including dosage) and the reason for taking it. At least 2 Weeks worth of any Medications you may need if you're displaced. Any special-needs items for children, seniors or disabled family members. List of Allergies to Any Drug (Especially Antibiotics) or Food Copy of Health Insurance and Identification Cards List of emergency point-of-contact phone numbers

12 Whistle Dust Mask and Gloves Pocket Knife Permanent Marker, Paper and Tape Extra Prescription Eye Glasses, Hearing Aid or other vital personal items Sturdy Shoes, and a Warm Hat At Least 3 Complete Changes of Clothes

13 Sanitation and Hygiene items:. 'ftimiifiimnii-. If you're going to be spending a few days together as a family in the same vehicle, moist towelettes, deodorant, toothbrush and toothpaste is a must. Be sure your bag is prepped with personal hygiene supplies for everyone.

14 Battery-powered Radio You'll want to have a Battery-Opera ted Radio with Extra Batteries on hand Or a Solar Hand Crank Self Powered AM/FM/NOAA LED Flashlight Weather Radio With a USB Charging Port, in case you lose power to make sure you hear any Emergency Alerts. Solar Powered USB C

15 When the power goes out and it's dark out, you'll be reaching for a flashlight. With advancements in light bulb technology, go for an LED bulb, which lasts longer than traditional lights. Extra batteries are a MUST!

16

17 IF YOU EVACUATE YOUR HOME, DO NOT LEAVE YOUR PETS BEH Pets most likely cannot survive on their ov^n; and if by some remote chance they do, you may not be able to find them when you return. If you are going to a public shelter, it is important to understand that animals may not be allowed inside. Plan in advance for shelter alternatives that will work for both you and your pets; consider family or friends outside of your immediate area who would be willing to host you and your pets in an emergency.

18 DO NOT WAIT UNTIL DISASTER STRIKES: Local and state health and safety regulations do not permit the Red Cross to allow pets in disaster shelters. (Service animals are allowed in Red Cross shelters.). It may be difficult, if not impossible, to find shelter for your animals in the midst of a disaster, so plan ahead.

19 Sturdy leashes and pet carriers. (A pillowcase is a good option for transporting cats and other small animals.) ^ Non-spill bowls, manual can opener and plastic lid Favorite toys and treats You might want to have an extra blanket or familiar bedding Something with your scent on it

20 The best option is to get a friend or relative outside the evacuation area to take your pets, and preferably you, too. If that's not possible, locate a pet friendly hotel or motel on PetFriendlyTraveLcom or one that waives animal prohibitions during evacuations. * Prepare a list of boarding facilities and veterinarians who could shelter animals in an emergency; include 24-hour phone numbers. * You may not be home when the evacuation order comes; find out if a trusted neighbor would be willing to take your pets and meet you at a prearranged location.

21 FoocI and Medicine Two-week supply of; Dry and canned (pop-topyood' Medicine* Neater Feeding dish and water bowl Manual can opener Liquid dish soap *These items must be rotated and replaced to ensure they don't expire
