FEMA Disaster Training Expert, Cheryl Nelson, joined Inside South Florida to share disaster preparedness essentials to have in the event of an emergency.
“I love Hawthorn Extended Stay by Wyndham,” says Nelson. “They offer spacious suites with fully equipped kitchens, onsite laundry, fitness centers, Wi-Fi, breakfast, and that Wyndham rewards program.” For more information, visit WyndhamHotels.com/Hawthorn-Extended-Stay
Having dependable sources of power during a storm can be a life-saving essential.
“The Schumacher SL 1612 Rugged Lithium Jump Starter and USB power source offers a long-lasting battery that's reliable enough to jumpstart a vehicle,” says Nelson. “Savant Power Storage delivers the ability to use stored electricity from the grid and solar during power outages from extreme weather events.” Find this item at SchumacherElectric.com
Clearing brush and debris is vital after a natural disaster occurs and nearly impossible without the proper tools.
“Husqvarna 455 Rancher Chainsaw is my favorite in this series,” says Nelson. “It's versatile and fuel efficient, and it produces low emissions, which makes it a better choice for the environment.” Find this product at Husqvarna.com
