so, we discussed this last night - if you had to evacuate your house, right now, do you have a plan for that?

assume it won't be there to go back to.

Responses:

We've got a tornado plan. Only a mile in from the city's edge, so it is feasible a monster twister could reach us. -- nm - Name Withheld by Request May 5, 09:16
We go into the sub-basements. -- nm - Spawn May 5, 09:14
If we had less than a minute, then: Grab the stuff with the passports/birth certificates that is up front, and get out with anything living. - JaxSean May 5, 09:09
I have a backpack with some knives and small weapons that would get grabbed. - groiny May 5, 09:08
Grab wallet, keys, cats (difficult, I know), get out. I have important papers in a fireproof safe so I'm hoping I could sift thru the rubble for it. -- nm - Covington May 5, 09:05
Since the birth of our daughter, this is something that's crossed my mind several times but I've yet to do anything about it. -- nm - volnelk May 5, 08:57 2
- It's not hard to put together an emergency kit. Most States have agencies that give good advice - landbeck May 5, 09:02 1
  - Good idea. Yeah thats one of my concerns is whatever I put together getting dated pretty quick, but it's still better than having nothing. -- nm - volnelk May 5, 09:09
Step one: run out the front door - mr. sassafras jeans May 5, 08:56 1
- Step two: ??? Step three: Profit! -- nm - TWuG May 5, 09:01
Pretty sure what our options are, though it would depend on how big the affected area was and the reason for it - znufrii May 5, 08:54 8
- our discussion was like 'how do we grab both cats and some stuff?' - Andie May 5, 08:58 7
  - Do you have food for the cats? -- nm* - landbeck May 5, 09:02 2
    - we have a tupperware container with some in the go bag. - Andie May 5, 09:06 1
      - *thumbs up* Emergency kits are for the first 24-72 hours. "Not much but some" is perfect. -- nm - landbeck May 5, 09:07
  - All we'd need is to grab the passports and phone chargers, and out the door we'd go. -- nm - znufrii May 5, 09:02 3
    - insurance info? -- nm - Andie May 5, 09:06 2
      - pretty sure I'd be able access anything I need online. - znufrii May 5, 09:09 1
        
        i have scans of our passports and our insurance policy buried deep in a 'pet info' folder online. :) -- nm - Andie May 5, 09:10
We have a barebones plan, yes. -- nm - spamlet May 5, 08:54
We do. We have escalating scenarios on both the 1) are we together (or in contact) or are we separate, and 2) how far away do we have to go/flee. - landbeck May 5, 08:53
