Phone Charger (portable charger recommended)
Cash (small bills)
First-Aid Kit

For Your Loved Ones:

Family Communication Plan (designated meeting point, contact info)
Pet Supplies (food, water, leash, carrier, medications)

Securing Your Home:

Lock all doors and windows.
If instructed by officials, shut off gas, electricity, and water. Consider taking photos/videos of your belongings for insurance purposes, as suggested by some preparedness guides.

Ongoing Research: Researchers continually strive to enhance wildfire prediction and evacuation strategies. While current models provide valuable insights, predicting fire behavior with 100% certainty remains challenging due to factors like wind shifts and terrain. Ongoing studies explore incorporating real-time data and advanced algorithms for more accurate predictions. Some research suggests personalized alerts based on individual risk factors may improve future evacuation management.
