Evacuation is never a pleasant choice, but it may be your only safe option. It may be the result of a fire, severe weather, earthquake, or you may be forced from your home or business as the result of a sudden local emergency event, or you need temporary shelter during a disaster recovery. Regardless, having bug-out kits, stored supplies to help you through this difficult time is important. Remember if you are leaving your home and community follow the evacuation advice of your local officials
