Very good advice above - a few more things to think of. In the last few hours leading up to any hurricane landfall you should fill your bathtub with water, grab a bucket and scoop out the water to flush your toilets. Battery powered radios are a must, it is your lifeline to the location of any governmental supplies brought in after a disaster. One thing you may want to get is one of those hand-crank / batter radios, I think Radio Shack and Target have them, they are great for saving money on batteries and most are made very high quality.
