Do These Things To Prepare For Storm/Wind Advisory |
September 5, 2022 | |
Are you in a storm/wind advisory? Here are a few things to do in advance to prepare: Flashlights & Batteries * Keep the batteries and the flashlights handy.
*Make sure that your cell phone is fully charged. You know that this can be a huge resource for anyone without power. Having this charged will be super helpful getting in touch with your local power company so they know you are without (or still without) power or family that may be concerned about you.
* If you have a well pump (and it runs on electricity) make sure to have a few bottles of water stored for drinking. A good rule of thumb, one gallon of water per person, per day.
* Have a few non-perishable foods on hand, that do not require cooking so you can have access to food items, just in case the power goes out.
* Make sure that your car is filled with gasoline. Stay calm and remember that the members of the Pleasant Valley Fire District will be there to provide help as needed... |
