Ready Set Go: Building Your 72-Hour Emergency Kit
Last week we talked about being roadside ready by building a vehicle emergency kit. Today, we are going to talk about a kit for your home.
Ready dot gov recommends we be self sufficient for three days.
One govt official said, after a hurricane a few years ago, "The first 72 are on you."
In the early '60s, a Civil Defense program called, Grandma's Pantry asked everyone to be prepared for at least seven days.
Hurricane Helene in Western North Carolina, South Carolina, and Tennessee showed us that we may need a lot more than even seven days, but today we are going to talk about the 72 hour kit, or emergency kit, and then you can expand it to be self sufficient for two or three weeks if you wish.
