I have done a quick search for protecting your house in an emergency and did not find what I was looking for. My friend in the UK has no electric power due to the high winds. It got me thinking how you are prepared to handle emergencies such as no electric power or flooding?

Basic things like a chain saw to clear downed trees(assuming there are no downed lines)and a power generator I understand. But if you have a Honda generator then it needs to be run outside due exhaust fumes.

What provision have you made for upcoming storms? With more extremes in weather I am sure it would pay off as these occrurences seem to be happening more often..
