Emergency Preparedness Expert Larry Frank a.k.a Mr. Prepared™ Reveals Advice From Gustav Survivors

PRLog (Press Release) – Oct 05, 2008 – In a recent article on http://www.MrPrepared.com, emergency preparedness expert, Larry Frank a.k.a. Mr. Prepared™, offers several points of advice from survivors of Hurricane Gustav.  The article titled “Hurricane Evacuation Secrets” chronicles the preparedness and actions of several people who learned lessons from Hurricane Katrina and applied them to the recent slew of hurricanes to hit the Gulf Coast. They were more than eager to share what they did right – and what they did wrong – in their emergency evacuation preparations. An extremely popular and timely feature on Mr. Prepared’s™ website, is his free special report called “The Top 10 Facts For Hurricane Survival.”

Mr. Prepared™ highlights advice about where to stay during an emergency, how to help kids through an emergency, keeping copies of valuable documents, and keeping a journal of the emergency situation.  In the article, Gustav survivor L.E. McNutt says that, when evacuating, you should “avoid hotels. Stay with family, friends, campgrounds, anything. Only as a last resort should you lock yourself into a box with nothing but two beds and non-stop cable news coverage of the hurricane.”
