【Three Female Ghosts】

STOCK UP AND SAVE:Prep for hurricane season with emergency preparedness deals at Amazon. Save on Three Female Ghostsflashlights, power banks, generators, and more essential supplies.

Hurricane season officiallybegan on June 1, but depending on where you live, you might not have gotten more than a little sprinkle until now — peak season.

If you live on the East Coast (especially in the South), like I do, then you’ve probably been dealing with the aggressive wind and day-to-day rain from Storm Debby. My power’s flickered on and off a few times, and my dogs haven’t been on a walk since Monday — it’s been miserable.

As of August 8, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration predicts there will be 17 to 24 named storms this season, including four to seven major hurricanes with 111 mph or greater winds. That's a lot of weather to weather, especially if you’re unprepared.

To help make sure you don’t end up stranded sans essentials, we've rounded up the best deals on emergency supplies like flashlights, batteries, and power banks.

Whether you're stocking up your home or your car, now’s the time to get ready for the storms ahead.

Best flashlight deal

Why we like it

Having a flashlight on hand (even if you live in an urban area) is a good idea. You never know when the power might go out.

Right now, you can get two GearLight LED Flashlights for just $15.20 at Amazon (with the on-screen coupon). This two-pack of mini but mighty flashlights has more than 79K reviews and a 4.6-star rating. Each 1040 Lumen LED tactical flashlight has five modes and a zoomable beam. Plus, they’re virtually indestructible — they can withstand a 10-foot drop and are water-resistant. These flashlights are battery-powered, so you’ll need AAA batteries to use them.

Best battery deal

Why we like it

Speaking of batteries (the things we used before smartphones and USB charging became the norm), stocking up on a reliable set is a smart move.

This Energizer Battery Pack includes 24 Energizer MAX alkaline double AA batteries and 24 Energizer MAX alkaline triple AAA batteries. It may seem like overkill, but having both sizes on hand means you'll be able to power everything from your flashlight to your radio.

You can get this 48-pack for just $28.84 on Amazon.

Best power bank deal

Why we like it

There’s nothing worse than being in an emergency situation with no way to call for help or reach the outside world. That’s why having a power bank charged and ready to go is a must. (It’s also handy to have one when traveling to keep your phone powered up.)

The 24,000mAh Anker Power Bank can power your laptop, tablet, and phone multiple times over. It has multiple ports, so you can charge up to three devices at the same time. The digital display makes it easy to see how much juice you have left.

It’s compatible with iPhone 15 (all models), iPhone 14 and 13 models, Samsung Galaxy phones, Macbook, and more. Just be sure to double-check the fine print to make sure your device is compatible.

While it’s normally 149.99 at Amazon, you can get it today for 103.99 with an on-site coupon.

What else should you stock up on to weather the storm? Bottled water, non-perishable foods, a first-aid kit, a NOAA weather radio, a portable generator, and sandbags (depending on your area) are all good places to start.

As hurricane season rages on, it's better to be safe than sorry.
