Big Snow Today . . . Were You Prepared? A Preparedness Recap

I think it would be good for “someone” to make a list of disasters and the relative probability of each. For example earthquakes are probable in California, but we don’t know when. Ice storms are probable in North Carolina every year. Tornadoes are probable in Oklahoma every year. What do I actually need to prepare for?

The Fema website and some of the state websites do that, but don't just rely on the government provided stuff-- use your own better judgment . . .
