In an online poll, the Citizen asked readers: Are you prepared to leave your home with little to no notice due to an emergency?
Here are the results:
109 votes (16%) - Yes, I have an emergency bag and a place to go
193 votes (28%) - Mostly, I don't have anything packed but I know where I'd go
239 votes (34%) - Not really, I'd be ready to go if anything happened
153 votes (22%) - No, I'm not worried about it
There were 694 votes cast when the poll was on the website from Aug. 19 to Sept. 1.
