The fact that you asked the question is the first step toward managing the situation. Next, what types of disasters is your area prone to? Earthquakes. That could take out freeways, electricity, water, gas, level homes, etc. Prepare an earthquake kit consisting of basic non-perishable foods (canned goods, dried, etc. Have several bottles of water in the kit as well as basic first aid supplies.
Hurricanes are your potential problem, prepare a kit for that.
If you're worried about your work situation, Have a backup site out of the area where all they employees can go. Keep your backup computer information off site but accessible from your back up office.
There are all sorts of plans you can make in advance to handle just about every situation. But the most important information you'll need to know is how the rest of your family is doing. Have Aunt Mable, 3 states away, as the contact point. Everyone calls her and she passes on messages. And always remember -- the best laid plans of mice and men go afoul. You can plan until your fingers fall off, but there will always be that unknown quantity that messes you up. Deal with it.

Life is all abt waking up each day to discover something new, abt meeting old people but making new conversations, walking through old roads but still feeling nice abt it, realizing that you have grown a day older but still feeling young at heart, meeting busy schedules but still finding time for old friends, being nostalgic abt by gone days but looking fwd to better days, wanting to shoot d pest
