As Hurricane Irene is set to impact this area Saturday night into Sunday morning, Falls Church area residents are rushing to local stores and gas stations to prepare for the worst. Batteries, bread, and water are some of the first items to disappear from the shelves at the Falls Plazza Giant in Falls Church.

Officials recommend stocking up with 2-3 days of food and water, as well as plenty of batteries to power those TVs and radios.  They also suggest filling gas tanks in case of an emergency. As always, residents should check local news and radio stations for updates. Falls Church City will issue email and text alerts through alert.fallschurchva.gov and post on the City’s Facebook page.

Here are some important numbers that you may need during the upcoming storm:
