While living in and visiting Florida offers many benefits and advantages, it is important to keep in mind severe weather hazards and potential threats. Every family and business should have predefined emergency plans and always keep an emergency supply kit ready and stocked.

WATER PREPARATIONS: To prepare for possible interruptions to a safe water supply from storms, it is recommended to store at least 1 gallon per person per day for 3 days for drinking and sanitation.

While commercially bottled water is reliable, you can fill containers you already have at home with tap water to prepare.

Fill food-grade bottles, jars, pitchers, baggies, or coolers with tap water for drinking or cooking. Food-grade containers have tops that can be closed tightly. Wash and sanitize before use.

Fill buckets, plastic storage bins, or bathtubs with tap water for cleaning and bathing. Do not drink the water from these containers.

Never use containers that once held toxic substances.
