Have you consider what you will do if you have failed to all honor the mandatory evacuation by law for the next large catastrophic and large category hurricane? You need to think of some of the essentials in some of your daily endeavors. For instance in the morning most Americans drink a cup of coffee and it is almost like the ritual.

However, after a large category hurricane hits like the ones we saw during the 2005 Atlantic tropical hurricane season, generally the power is out and there is no way to make your coffee. You cannot boil water in your microwave because there is no power. You cannot plug in your Mr. Coffee because there is no power, but you will have to find a way to boil water to make coffee or a way to make your coffee maker work.

There are many ways to do this for instance you can get a portable generator and just turn it on for a few minutes to make your coffee each day or perhaps you can boil water by making a fire out of the debris left in your yard from the hurricane.

There are little devices that you can buy to put over your coffee cup and pour on the hot water and although this may not be as good as your used to, it will suffice until the power is back on. Can you imagine a day without your morning cup of coffee; many Americans cannot imagine such a horrific event. Please consider this in 2006.
