Coastal regions are used to hurricane prepping, but with the
pandemic still raging, weather watchers and emergency advisers are asking
people to add a few points to their checklists this year.
Besides making sure to wear a mask, don’t forget to stock up
with some extras, along with hand sanitizers and soap in your hurricane kit,
Forbes says. Disinfectant and wipes should be on the list too. And, if you’re
an area that may be evacuated, be sure to check which shelters are open and
which ones may be in a COVID-19 hotspot — and therefore probably ones you might
want to avoid.
