    Disconnect the battery. Air up tires to max inflation pressure listed on the tire (in case you have a slow leaker and to reduce flatspotting).

    That should be good.

          Get the car as far off the ground as possible. Never know when one of them storms might come through.

          I think Kris R hit all the basics.

            Hurricane seasons over.

            I say put it out in the parking lot. People will eventually catch on that no one is driving it, and will think it's abandoned. After the car is trashed, vandalized, or stolen you can get one that's faster.

              Just turn the thing off and roll the windows up if you feel like it.
