SOME THINGS TO DO SO YOU CAN LOWER YOUR STRESS LEVEL WHEN YOU HEAR WEATHER REPORTS!!
Put your family plan together now, so that there will be less chaos when a storm heads our way.
This plan should include emergency telephone numbers placed by your telephones, supplies for 14 days, a disaster kit and important family documents stored in a waterproof container.
Early in the season, install safety features in your house, such as smoke detectors and fire extinguishers . Inspect your home for potential hazards ( like items that can move, fall, break or catch fire) and correct them.
Have your family learn basic safety measures, such as CPR and first aid; how to use a fire extinguisher; and how and when to turn off water, gas and electricity in your home.
Remember…EVACUATION ORDER ….is the most important instruction you will receive. Once issued, it is mandatory.
