Pls be prepared for Typhoon Opong expected to make landfall at 11am..
Manila will reportedly be almost direct hit by the new typhoon. There is no downside in being over prepared. Consider the ff:
โข Charge All Devices: Fully charge mobile phones, tablets, and power banks while electricity is still available. This ensures you can communicate and access emergency updates even during power outages.
โข Lighting & Backup Light: Have flashlights and extra batteries ready. Keep candles and matches on hand โ but use them safely to avoid fire hazards.
โข Stock Food & Water: Store enough clean drinking water and non-perishable food (canned goods, instant meals) for at least 3 to 5 days. Include pet food if needed.
โข Secure Your Home: Close and reinforce windows and doors. Bring indoors or tie down anything outside that can be blown away. Clear drains and gutters to avoid flooding.
โข Medical & Essentials Kit: Keep a first-aid kit, regular medications, and important documents (IDs, medical papers) in waterproof pouches or containers.
โข Stay Updated: Monitor official announcements from PAGASA, local disaster offices, and your barangay.
โข Plan for Evacuation: Know your nearest evacuation center and safe routes in advance. Arrange transport if needed (for elders, children, pets).
โข During the Storm: Stay indoors, stay away from windows and glass. Avoid going outside unless absolutely necessary.
โข After the Storm: Be cautious of fallen electric lines, weakened structures, and floodwaters. Avoid wading through flooded areas unless essential.
Please share.
Stay safe
