Storm preparation is most effective when supplies are collected, charged, tested, and easy to reach before the weather turns dangerous. Start with the gaps that would affect your household most, build the kit gradually, and review it at the beginning of each severe-weather season so you are not trying to solve every problem after the power is already out.
