Hurricanes
Notes:
- Hurricanes and their after effects, such as flooding, can often devastate communities, like the wreckage in New Orleans seen in 2005 after Hurricane Katrina.
- If you live in the South East of the country (for example in states such as Louisiana or Florida), you should be thinking about hurricanes which can often occur in the summer. Thankfully, there are a few steps you can take to protect your house.
- Make sure to bolt your windows (install heavy duty bolts), upgrade roof durability and put your furniture inside. It goes without saying that you should also evacuate your house to be extra safe.

Floods
Notes:
- Flooding can be particularly dangerous to your house and can occur after a hurricane or particularly heavy rainfall. The part of your house most likely to be endangered by such a disaster is your basement, so make sure that it is sufficiently waterproofed.
- Additionally, it might make sense for you to raise the elevation of your house and to turn off all pipes in advance so that they cannot burst and cause extra flooding. If your house has been particularly devastated by floods, then Deep Water Co can help with its restoration.

Droughts
Notes:
- Droughts occur mostly in the Western and South Western states of the USA such as Arizona, Colorado and California, and affect nearly 53 million people across the entire country.
- Make sure that you have purchased plenty of bottled water in advance, which can be used in the event of a crisis. You can also install your own rainwater tank in order to have a natural source of reserve water.

Earthquakes
Notes:
- Earthquakes are most prevalent in California, with many cities running along the San Andreas fault. Despite the best efforts of scientists, they still cannot be predicted very far in advance, meaning that it is essential that you are always ready.
- Make sure that all hanging lights and paintings — basically anything that is affixed to the ceiling or wall — are securely fastened. Additionally, double check the durability and strength of the house so it will be less likely collapse in the event of an earthquake.

Tornados
Notes:
- Tornados occur in the Tornado Alley of the USA in states such as Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas and Iowa. If you live in this area (where tornados do occur and can travel up to 300 miles per hour), it is important to have a secure basement area that you and your family can use in order to safely wait it out.
