Post emergency numbers Prepare emergency kit with items such as one gallon water per person per day, canned goods and non-perishables, first aid kit, and emergency tools such as flashlights, batteries, can openers and radio just to name a few. Choose an out-of-town emergency contact person. (They should live far enough away that they will be unlikely to be affected by the same event.) With the increased use of cell phones, add your contact person as the first contact in your cell phone address book and label the entry "ICE" for "In Case of an Emergency". Establish a predetermined meeting place for all family members. Take your pets with you but be prepared to go to a relative's or friend's home as pets are not allowed in public shelters.
Listen to your radio or television for news and instructions. Follow the advice of local emergency officials. Do not light matches or candles or turn on electrical switches. If you smell gas or suspect a leak, turn off the main gas valve, open windows, and get everyone outside quickly. Call your family contact; do not use the telephone again unless it is a life-threatening emergency.
