考虑到飓风可能造成的重大破坏,康涅狄格州和罗得岛州政府在鲍勃抵达新英格兰前宣布进入紧急状态。所有州政府工作人员接到提前回家、为应对风暴来袭做准备的通知。康涅狄格州议会取消州预算主题会议,州长小洛厄尔·魏克尔(Lowell P. Weicker, Jr.)启动应急行动中心。格罗顿驻扎的潜艇离开港口,在水下静待风暴过去。面对气旋威胁,中大西洋地区和新英格兰各地的飞机和火车停运。[14]美国红十字会在康涅狄格州的16个社区共计开设23间避难所,还在邻近的罗得岛州开设有40间避难所[13]。除红十字会开设的以外,两州还另有25个避难所[15]。罗得岛州共有约3500人疏散,其中单布洛克岛(Block Island)就有2000人。另外,还有多人在防灾准备期间受伤[16]。
