Urgent Call to Action from ReadyWise: Protect Your Loved Ones Amidst Severe Weather Crisis

--News Direct--

The United States is grappling with an escalating series of extreme weather events that have wreaked havoc nationwide. Scientific research confirms that the frequency and severity of extreme precipitation, droughts, and forest fires are intensifying due to the impacts of climate change. As the country faces the aftermath of severe weather outbreaks that have resulted in fatalities, widespread power outages, and devastating wildfires, ReadyWise, a recognized emergency preparedness leader, urges Americans to take proactive steps to protect their families and loved ones.

The recent severe weather outbreak in the Eastern U.S. left a trail of destruction, claiming at least two lives and plunging over a million customers into darkness. Power line cleanup efforts are underway, underscoring the need for robust preparedness measures. Meanwhile, a catastrophic wildfire disaster in Hawaii unfolded, ravaging historic communities, and highlighting the urgency of being evacuation ready for natural disasters. While the complete extent of the destruction in Lahaina remains uncertain, social media videos depict a harrowing scene of a wall of flames sweeping down Front Street in Lahaina, obliterating everything in its wake.

"No one is exempt from the threats posed by natural disasters, and it's time for individuals and families to stop overlooking the warning signs," says Tim Lawlor, Director of Marketing at ReadyWise. "Being prepared with essential shelter-in-place and evacuation kits can be the difference between safety and suffering."

ReadyWise offers a comprehensive approach to emergency readiness, encompassing key steps to enhance survival chances:

1. Stock Up on Non-Perishable Foods: ReadyWise recommends maintaining a month's supply of non-perishable food for each family member. Their 4-Week Supply comes in stackable buckets with convenient handles, ensuring easy access during crises. At the minimum, all households should have at least three days’ worth of food and ReadyWise makes it easy with their 72 Hour Food and Drink Kit. With a shelf life of up to 25 years, their food remains fresh even when disaster strikes.

2. Water Storage and Filtration: Access to clean water is critical. In an emergency people need clean water not just for drinking, but also for cooking and hygiene. ReadyWise provides various water storage options, including a 50-gallon water drum and filtration solutions such as the Water Filter Kit, designed for use with ReadyWise Food Buckets.

3. Backup Power Solutions: Power outages are a common consequence of natural disasters. ReadyWise advocates for self-sufficiency by offering a Generator and Solar Power Bundle with durable environmental protection.

4. Evacuation Preparedness: The recent Hawaii wildfires emphasize the urgency to be ready to evacuate immediately. ReadyWise offers Survival Backpacks like their 3 Day Bug-Out Bag containing essential items like food, water filtration, cooking equipment, waterproof matches, mylar blankets, survival flashlights, and more. Storing important documents and medications in the bag ensures a quick escape when time is of the essence.

The devastation witnessed during events like the Hawaii wildfires emphasizes that no one is immune to natural disasters. Preparedness can be a lifeline, offering the best chance of survival.
