Prep for the hazards that actually hit your area. Nathan Yearsley from Augason Farms maps out region-specific moves: elevate valuables, stage sandbags, and use waterproof bins for hurricanes and floods; clear defensible space, run an air purifier, and stash N95s for wildfire smoke; secure furniture, keep shoes by the bed, and practice drop-cover-hold for earthquakes; pick a safe room, drill sheltering, and add helmets + whistles for tornadoes. Customize kits and your family comms plan to your real risks.
