Your Evacuation Plan
My family plan is to get to the evacuation center as so as possible even though where in zone B which isn't to safe. But before we get there we will be taking a cab. The reason for that is because by train it would take to long. So we pick cab. We would also grab food, water, and a first aid kit.
