Michael Petruccelli says; This is the bag you will take with you to when you evacuate. If you are going to a public shelter: Pack your essentials, but pack light as space is limited. It is possible may only have space that measures 5 ft x 2 ft. Remember, a public shelter is not a cruise ship, it is a life boat with the mission to save lives. If you go to a relatives or friends home in a non-evacuation area you may have more room but also ask if you can help out by bringing food from home. Stores will close, bottled water & canned goods with be thin pickings.
