 I live in an area of Canada that gets pounded by hurricanes of increasing strength a couple times a year. I have a decent emergency kit put together, including two Running Snail Emergency Radios, a water rotation system so we always have ~36L on hand, flashlights, etc, however some online sources suggest having a CB Radio.

Are they worth it? If so, what do I need for something that will spend 99% of its life packed in a closet? The Uniden PRO501HH seems like a decent, cheap option. Is that the way to go?
