There's another storm headed for the Bay Area and meteorologists are predicting more flooding. Here's a quick list that the National Weather Service has put together for you to prepare.

  • Pack a “go bag” to evacuate quickly
  • Have insurance policies handy (tip: take photos of each room in your home beforehand)
  • Extra supplies at home in case closed roads/power outages last for several days
  • Plan for pets’ needs
  • Stock up on necessary medications
  • Prepare for flooding if you’re near a river/creek
  • Mud/rock slides could occur if you’re near hills
  • Sign up for your county’s reverse 9-1-1
