Tips from FEMA (Federal Emergency Management Agency) for preparing your home from a hurricane.

• Cover all of your home's windows with precut plywood or hurricane shutters to protect your windows from high winds.
• Plan to bring in all outdoor furniture, decorations, garbage cans and anything else that is not tied down. 
• Keep all trees and shrubs well trimmed so they are more wind resistant.
• Turn off utilities as instructed. Otherwise, turn the refrigerator thermostat to its coldest setting and keep doors closed.
• Turn off propane tanks.
• Ensure a supply of water for sanitary purposes such as cleaning and flushing toilets. Fill the bathtub and other large containers with water.
