As Tropical Storm Nate threatens Nicaragua, it’s the 13th named storm in 2017 (7 of them have gone on to become hurricanes.)

Forecasts show Nate is expected to become a much stronger hurricane and make landfall along the central Gulf Coast over the weekend where flooding, wind damage and other deadly threats can terrorize residents and the local environment.

With hurricanes so ridiculously prevalent at this current point in history – it is more than logical to seek comfort, which you can achieve through practicing good emergency preparedness.

One of the best ways to be prepared is to have a “go bag” that contains all of the supplies you would necessitate in any number of situations. When the weather hits the fan, you can easily access vital supplies or throw them in a car / on your back for a swift exit.

Let’s discuss the kind of supplies a modern American civilian would want to include in such an emergency preparedness kit.
