Friday Firewise: Start now. Create an emergency plan with your family and assemble an emergency kit you can easily grab in case of wildfire or another disaster. Include nonperishable food, plenty of water (1 gallon per person for 3 days), extra clothing, a first aid kit, a battery-powered radio (with extra batteries), hand-crank flashlights, prescription medications, and any other items you may need.
