Since Hurricane Irene is approaching, now's not a terrible time to check out Southampton's Hurricane Guidebook (the Town of East Hampton's Emergency Services website is, curiously, not currently working). Here are a few tips we gleaned from the booklet: Tell your gardener to skip the hedge trimming this weekend, take any important paperwork from your yacht, and know that there is absolutely no alcohol allowed in Town hurricane shelters (so don't forget that a full bottle of rosé fits inside one of Starbucks' trenta sized iced coffee cups).
