As the weather cools down its time to check your bug out kit. I change the contents of my kit every 6 months. So go get your kit and check the expiration dates of all your food. If they expire in the next six months take them out and use them for dinner this week. Check your clothing to be sure it will be useful for the next 6 months. Change out your summer clothes for winter clothes. Be sure the clothes fit and are in good condition. With shorter daylight you may want to have more batteries for your lights. Be sure there is a heat source so if you need to evacuate you will have some way to keep warm.
If your water is in home filled plastic bottles, dump them out and refill with fresh clean water.
Last be sure you can lift your kit. If it is too heavy you can make a few smaller kits. One with essentials, one with things good to have and one with the things that make bugging out pleasant.
Be sure your kit is where you can get to it easily.
