HURRICANE SAFETY TIPS
The peak of the Atlantic hurricane season is mid-September, with most activity occurring between mid-August and mid-October. Below are tips you and your family should practice to stay safe before, during and after the storm.
PREPARING FOR THE HURRICANE:
• Make sure flashlights, battery-powered lanterns and other sources of light are readily available.
• Have an adequate supply of medicine, first aid supplies, and necessary items.
• Keep a two-week supply of bottled water, non-perishable food items, batteries and solar-powered lights on hand.
• Keep identification and documentation on hand, such as your social security card, driver’s license, birth certificate and insurance information for your home, car, and life.
DURING THE HURRICANE:
• Don’t open freezers/refrigerators any more than necessary.
• Unplug sensitive electronic appliances such as TVs, game consoles, microwaves and computers – this will protect your appliances against power fluctuations that can occur when power is restored.
• After power is restored, be sure to wait five to 10 minutes before turning on appliances and heating systems.
AFTER THE HURRICANE:
• If power lines and poles are down in your area, treat them as if they are energized and dangerous. Never touch them and stay away. Make sure to call us to report the damage.
• Debris from the storm can hide power lines that have fallen.
• Fallen trees that contain energized power lines can electrocute any item it comes in contact with, such as a metal fence, a pond or standing water. Even the ground can be energized near fallen power lines.
