So, what should you do? Well, for starters, don't panic. Panic is like inviting a hurricane to your house for a sleepover. It's just not cool. Instead, keep an eye on the weather updates, but don’t obsess over it. Remember, worrying is like paying interest on a debt you haven’t incurred yet.
QuickTip: Revisit key lines for better recall.
How to Stay Calm During Hurricane Season
Here are a few tips to keep your cool during hurricane season:
- How to stock your pantry: Think beyond ramen noodles. We’re talking canned goods, water, and snacks that won’t require electricity to enjoy.
- How to create a hurricane emergency kit: Grab a backpack, fill it with essentials like flashlights, batteries, first aid kit, and important documents. It’s like prepping for a camping trip, but with less nature and more potential wind.
- How to secure your home: Go on a walk around your house and imagine it's a toddler. Would you leave sharp objects lying around? Nope. Secure loose items, trim trees, and consider hurricane shutters.
- How to create a communication plan: Decide who to contact in case of an emergency and how you’ll reach them. It's like planning a family reunion, but with less awkward small talk.
- How to stay informed: Follow reliable weather sources and have multiple ways to receive alerts. Because knowledge is power, and power is what you need to keep your cool.
So, while Idalia might be making headlines, Houston is currently enjoying a front-row seat to the drama without any of the stress. But remember, it’s always good to be prepared, just in case our unexpected guest decides to show up.
