Focus on your community. Communicate how you can support, and what support you may require, with those you love and trust.
Unless you plan on leading or fighting, resilience is your goal.

probably nothing to do to prepare really.
know as many people as possible in case something bad happens. people are more useful in a disaster than just about anything else.

If the news literally says “nuclear war imminent!”, leave the city.
Not “hmm, I wonder if they really mean it”. *Exit*.

yeah ok so here's how this goes.
if you're lucky there will be a military base near your city. in a mass nuclear strike, those get hit first, with submarine missiles. this is an early warning, as the blast will blow your windows out. you have fifteen minutes at that point.

Sigh, I will link reading when I get back. My best friend is a nuclear war nerd.

One concrete step is to buy a supply of potassium iodide tablets. I keep some at home and at work just in case.

QC, years before that happens, find your community and take care of it. Hard to survive a war on your own when it comes knocking.
Have doors in places you can knock and know they will open.

If you're ever around these here parts you can probably try our places, we won't be needing ours for a while since we'll have been mobilised for armed duty
