Thats a good plan...No doubt about it...
But I bet you a dollar, you would have had the same stuff, packed up, loaded up in your vehicle(s), and been on your way out before it hit...
BTW, we do think alike...
One thing, do you got family living outside of a perceived "damage swath" of a hurricane like this???
That would be a good fallback position...
If not, you may want to imagine where you might go to be safe, then think an hour to two hours (by vehicle) beyond that point...
Just some ideas...
Grab the important stuff and have it prepacked.
1) Videos of your kids growing up.
2) Have your guns cleaned and in heavy-duty plastic bags with cleaning kits and plenty of panther-piss except for your carry weapons. (You should have already stocked ammo)
3) Canned goods and MRE's (Army/Navy stores). Ice ain't gonna happen so be ready to do without. People did for hundreds of thousands of years.
4) I have a 30 gallon plastic barrel for water, you should too.
5) Keep all vehicles full of fuel.
6) Batteries, batteries, batteries.
7) Police up all camping gear and have it prepacked.
8) Pre-arranged rally point with a backup rally point.
9) The squemish should prethink if they will shoot goblins or give up their families lives to them. I can skip step 9.
There are more but I need to get back to work.
It would be great if others added to or massaged my brief list.
Absolutely. But I saw some interviews of people who had to stay because they had children recovering from emergency surgery. So even if you're prepared you might find yourself caught in a crisis situation.
When I was a young'un growing up in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba we had to ride out all the hurricanes. There wasn't anywhere to go. Ocean on three sides. Landmines and machine guns on the fourth side. We got hit by one hurricane three times. It kept doing a 180 and hit us again.
