PLAN #1 = Get home and stay home.

PLAN #2 = Evacuate only when required.

Plan #2 requires careful planning, and training. You must not become another one of the countless "refugees" wondering around after a disaster. You might be shot as a looter or rounded up and taken to a FEMA camp [Yikes] . You have to determine where you're going to go; how long it will take to get there (on foot if necessary); what you'll need to get you there; what you'll need once you're there.

Plan #2 can be solved in two ways:

Option A = have a relative a safe distance from your residence that is "of like mind" who will allow you store gear at their house. This person(s) should have their own gear or your stuff will be raided. The "Bug Out" only requires that you make it to their place safely.

Option B = Cache. You'll need to find a place (safe distance from your home) that you can cache supplies for use as a "retreat" location.

While I grew up idolizing the RED DAWN scenario, it is completely unrealistic for 99.99999% of us.
