There is still time for families at risk to prepare for Tropical Storm Isaac. The Federal Alliance for Safe Homes (FLASH)® has step-by-step instructions for last minute preparedness activities that, in as little as one hour, can make homes and families safer and better prepared for potential severe weather.  Suggested activities include:

• Building an emergency disaster kit

• Finalizing your family emergency plan

You can view a how-to video for each of these activities here:  http://youtu.be/BtlbtcpaNtw
