Bad weather: Learn how to prepare for the impact

As extreme weather conditions are expected, families should prepare for autonomy for 72 hours, focusing on safety and emergency supplies. The government has declared a state of alert, advising people to stay home to reduce risks and allow emergency services to operate. Immediate preparations include securing loose objects, checking drainage systems, parking vehicles safely, and ensuring doors and windows are secured. An emergency kit should include water, non-perishable food, flashlights, power banks, a portable radio, a first aid kit, personal hygiene products, essential documents, and emergency contact information. Emergency numbers should be noted for quick access.
