Jill.E.Bean :toad:<p>I’ve seen some sketchy hurricane preparedness pics from people in <a href="https://toad.social/tags/HurricaneHillary" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>HurricaneHillary</span></a>’s path. </p><p>Hurricanes are rare for that area so I offer some friendly advice. Putting winter covers on patio furniture and leaving it outside is not going to cut it. </p><p>Bring stuff inside or it will become a projectile. If you can’t bring it inside, dump it in your pool that you’ve partially emptied or pile it on top of each other and tie it down.<br />See here for more info: <a href="https://www.cdc.gov/disasters/hurricanes/before.html" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">cdc.gov/disasters/hurricanes/b</span><span class="invisible">efore.html</span></a></p><p><a href="https://toad.social/tags/Hilary" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Hilary</span></a></p>
