I always try to stay prepared for weather emergencies.
Despite the fact that Hurricane Earl was a dud.
The first major nor'easter hits tomorrow and Long Island tends to get slammed pretty hard.
I have supplies on hand at all times.
Food, water, flashlight, candles, home defense kit.
Safe transport for my dog.
I know the coastal evacuation routes.
Learned my lesson after the big ice storm we had in the '70s.
The only thing you really can't prepare for is when everyone around you turns into idiots.
