Hurricane Preparedness

Each year, the U.S. is hit by an average of six hurricanes and nearly a dozen powerful tropical storms—causing injuries, power outages, and long-term disruptions. Preparation is your best defense.
Safety & Survival

Safety & Survival

Hurricanes bring a high risk of injury. Wind-blown debris, collapsing trees, and flooded terrain often overwhelm emergency rooms and delay first responders. Contaminated floodwaters may compromise even basic supplies. Having clean, reliable gear on hand is critical.

Post-Storm Chaos

Flooding from hurricanes often peaks 6–12 hours after landfall, cutting off roads and delaying emergency response. Power outages can last 7–10+ days, leaving you without help when you need it most.

Power & Communication

When the grid goes down, staying connected is critical. Hurricanes can knock out power for days or even weeks, cutting off access to information, updates, and loved ones. Backup power, light sources, and emergency radios can help you stay informed.

Lion Energy Backup Power

Our portable power banks are a great short-term solution during a storm, but extended outages call for something stronger. For longer emergencies, we recommend battery generators from Lion Energy: powerful enough to run lights, charge devices, and even keep appliances going when the grid stays down.

Evacuation & Rescue

Flooding is the leading cause of hurricane-related deaths, often peaking hours after the storm passes. Roads can become impassable, and emergency response may be delayed. Having waterproof, portable gear ensures you can move quickly, safely, and self-sufficiently when every second counts.

The Rapid Raft: Your Quickwater companion

We designed the Rapid Raft for dangerous water crossings. It’s ultra-durable, packs small, and inflates in under a minute without tools. Whether evacuating through flooded streets or helping others reach dry ground, it offers quick, reliable mobility when every second counts.

Your High Ground Game Plan

Prepare with Sandbag Barriers

Stack sandbags at doorways, garages, and low-lying walls to divert water. Many counties offer free fill stations before major storms strike.

Don’t Walk or Drive Through Water

Just 6 inches of fast-moving water can knock you down, and 12 inches can carry away most vehicles. Turn around, don’t drown.

Pack a Waterproof Go-Bag

Include key documents, medications, and essentials in a waterproof bag near your main exit. Quick access can save critical minutes.
