I got this from my other blog. I hope you will find this tips helpful for the typhoon season.
Tips to observe with (or without) an impending typhoon.
- Dispose your garbage properly so it won’t clog the drainage and become the source of infection.
- Make sure that power lines are stable or firmly connected; shut down the main power if necessary.
- Boil your drinking water for two minutes or more; save sterilized water.
- Store foods that are not easy to perish.
- Complete vaccination for children.
- Prepare a “first aid kit”, fire extinguisher, flashlight or candle, and battery-operated radio.
In the event of an evacuation:
Â
- Listen only to reports and reminders coming from the proper authorities.
- Calmly follow all the reminders during evacuation.
- Be careful not to step on open manholes and street gutter.
- Avoid the path near or leading to the river.
- Using a rope, head to the part where the current is coming from. Never loose your grip on the rope.
Those are really helpful tips, Yam. Hopefully everyone will be alert in this typhoon season.
Thanks sis. Yeah, I think everyone learns the hard way. Pero sana hindi na maulit the destruction brought by typhoon Ondoy.
