Are you ready?  

Weather emergencies, fires, earthquakes, and other emergency situations can and will happen.  Mira Mesa has had multiple fires that threatened homes in recent months.  The predicted El Nino will bring stormy weather with lots of rain.

Make sure your family is prepared by reviewing your family plan annually. 

  • Discuss with your children how to handle each emergency and be sure to talk about what happens of a parent or another adult isn't around to help.
  • Have your children memorized important phone numbers and addresses?  Do they know the names contact information for other adults on which they can rely?
  • Check to see that your emergency food and water supplies are current.
  • Do you have a bug out bag ready to go in case of evacuation?
  • Remember to prepare for your furry, feathered, and scaled friends.  Pet will need emergency supplies as well.
