Best suggestion: Stay updated with and heed your local Emergency Management advisories.

One of the worst things, during Harvey, was lack of communication due to power outages.

No power, no wifi....

What saved us, was having an iPad that had cellular. We kept that charged via a generator and watched our local news.

Getting updates from our local OEM was VERY frustrating!! They wouldn’t update the road conditions, so it was difficult for folks to know which way to try to evacuate.

I ended up calling EVERY sheriff’s department between our county and the county (outside of San Antonio), where we evacuated to, to get road conditions, for I-10.

Thanks NN
We have a cottage in WNC......and would be there right now if we had’t driven home recently for doctor visits

Had no idea a hurricane would develop for those parts!
My concern is for friends, our church and the dear town folks
