Hurricane prep covers watches, insurance, and multi-day tropical planning before you travel. Rain-and-evacuation logistics focus on same-day indoor pivots plus building or island exit steps if conditions deteriorate while you are already here. Use both: prep before the trip, logistics during the storm.
