San Ysidro Home Damaged by Powerful Winds?
7/18/2023 (Permalink)
At this time of the year and through November 30, the Pacific hurricane season is happening and although hurricanes rarely make landfall in Southern California, we do receive some of the aftermath of these powerful weather events in the form of tropical storms and strong, gusty winds.
Our local Otay Mesa/SanYsidro team offers these tips for preparing for a high-wind event from the National Weather Service:
- Trim tree branches away from your house and power lines
- Secure loose gutters and shutters
- Identify an interior room of your house, such as an interior bathroom, that you can take shelter in during high wind warnings
- If you live in a mobile home, identify a sturdy building you can go to if the NWS issues a high wind or severe thunderstorm warning
- Charge batteries of all essential items such as cell phones and booster packs, weather radios, and power tools such as a reciprocating saw, which you may need to clear debris
- Update your emergency kit and be sure to include enough food and water to last for three days for each person in your home
- Make a list of items outside your home you will need to tie down or put away so that they don’t blow over or fly away through a window
