Make A Weather Alert Kit

Oklahoma's weather is unpredictable so a disaster kit is vital in every home.

When preparing for a tornado, or any natural disaster, you should have your disaster supply kit accessible. Your kit should include the following items:

• First aid kit and essential medications
• Canned food and can opener
• At least three gallons of water per person
• Protective clothing, rainwear and bedding or sleeping bags
• Battery-powered radio, flashlight and extra batteries, cell phone
• Special items for infants, elderly or disabled family members
• Written instructions for how to turn off electricity, gas and water if authorities advise you to do so
• A camera to document damage for insurance purposes
