The hurricane tech you need at the prices you want

It's hurricane seasonWill you be prepared when the next hurricane hits? The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s (NOAA’s) Climate Prediction Center says the US should prepare for an “active or extremely active hurricane season” this year.
“For the six-month hurricane season, which begins June 1, NOAA’s Atlantic Hurricane Season Outlook says there is a 70% likelihood of 13 to 20 named storms with winds of 39 mph or higher. Of these storms, seven to 11 could become hurricanes with winds of 74 mph or higher. Three to six are forecast to become major hurricanes of Category 3, 4 or 5 with winds of 111 mph or higher.”
The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) recommends that all households have a basic emergency supply stash with staples such as water and food, a First Aid kit, and prescription medications (see their full list here). They also suggest simple tech items such as a radio, flashlight or lantern, cell phone charger and backup power sources. Don’t be surprised if retailers cash in this season by raising prices on the tech you need. While you’re preparing your kit, check out these current deals on the appropriate storm safety technology.
