Cornstarch, huh? I did not know that one! I usually fill every pitcher and large bucket with water, freeze some, just in case the water goes. I get super twitchy about water quality.
I am currently clinging happily to the hill I moved to, seeing as the CART I am a member of has already broken out the flood response plans. Again.
Charge all the things. If you have backup batteries, have those charged and ready as well (for laptop, cell phones, cameras, your i-whatever). Those little wind up flashlights are brilliant.
If you are in the projected area of disaster, have bags packed in the event you have to move quickly. If things are looking to get bad, get animals relocated before it becomes necessary if you can. Voice of experience here- not having to worry about them takes a HUGE bit of stress off.
...I am hoping it diffuses or we manage to dodge. This area really cannot real with another strike.
