My husband and I just walked around our property together, making sure nothing was loose or left where it could be blown away, we brought the extra gas and left it besides the generator which we covered and secured again. I picked about 10 ripe figs, eating half before I made it into the house, moved some light pruned branches to under the tree. We had turned off the spriklers 2 days ago, I didn't refill the pond as most likely it will overflow and am keeping the pump off. There's not much more we can do as we can't fight Mother Nature. I grew up with hurricaines and our house had to have storm windows and doors on the otsde. Although this is unusual, it's doable and taking precautions we can survive. Later today I'll go check on my friend, older than me and living alone for the last 4 years.
Excellent recap. Seems everyone from community members, the Park, and City are taking safety seriously.
