Emergency Kit Essentials

Oklahoma weather doesn’t follow a calendar, so this is your reminder to make sure your emergency kits are stocked and ready. Winter isn’t quite done yet, and spring storms are already on the horizon.

A few must-have items to check or restock:

✔ Jumper cables
✔ Flashlight + extra batteries
✔ Blankets (warm + lightweight)
✔ First aid kit
✔ Phone charger or power bank
✔ Bottled water & non-perishable snacks
✔ Gloves, poncho, or rain gear
✔ Emergency contact list

Where should you keep emergency kits? Start with your car. It’s your first line of defense for winter breakdowns, icy roads, or getting caught in a sudden spring storm. Your storm shelter or safe room is another must, especially with severe weather season right around the corner, so think grab-and-go items like helmets, sturdy shoes, water, and a flashlight. And don’t forget one inside your home. When the power goes out or weather lingers longer than expected, having supplies within reach brings real peace of mind.

It’s important you and your family feel confident no matter what Oklahoma throws your way. If you’re updating your emergency kit, it’s also a smart time to review your coverage. Reach out today, and let’s make sure you’re protected through every season.
