Not to sound too dramatic, but disaster can strike at any moment. If you watch the nightly news or even hit procedural dramas like ABC's 9-1-1 , you know earthquakes, hurricanes, wildfires and floods are realities of living on planet Earth — and you can never be too prepared for when disaster strikes. We aren't talking about the Doomsday Preppers' level of preparedness, but rather an emergency supply kit that will help you if the power goes out or you're hunkered down waiting for a tornado to pass.
Building an emergency supply kit is easier than you might think because Amazon has what you need and will ship items directly to your door. First, you'll need a case or backpack to put everything in — we suggest something waterproof that can take a beating. Additionally, a first aid kit, a hand-crank radio, bottles of water, a flashlight and other emergency essentials will fill your survival kit, helping you stay equipped should any future natural disaster require you to take shelter.
Summer is hurricane, tornado and wildfire season, so now's the time to get started on building your supply kit in case of emergencies. Below, we've listed all the necessities for a survival kit that you can shop on Amazon now — some of which are even on sale. One reviewer said of this highly rated waterproof backpack, "Great size for our 'grab and go' during Hurricane Irma.
