If you have rentals, you may want to consider renting to those displaced by the storms. Don't jack up the rate. These people have been through enough. If willing to do your part. List your properties on this thread.

Ninth Hurricane Tip: Charge up everything, laptops phones, tablets, even old phones you can still call 911 on them. If you haven't already take video of your place and have your homeowners insurance information readily available. Im talking phone number, policy number and login information.

Eighth Hurricane Tip: Any cleaning of your yards, trees and shrubs, should already be done. Nothing worse than having recently prunned limbs turning into missiles during the storm. This should all be done prior to August 1st.

Seventh Hurricane Tip: Listen to local meteorologist. I like Denis Phillips, he is on all platforms and he tells you what you need to know without scaring the bejeezes out of you. In my opinion the Weather channel makes everything sound like armageddon.

Sixth Hurricane Tip: Cook in advance, you are probably gonna loose everything in your freezer anyhow. Much easier to heat up leftovers than cook a whole meal.
