Measures before a typhoon approaches Prepare for a storm
The scary thing about typhoon storms is that when a storm hits, you can’t move. Therefore, it is necessary to confirm and prepare for three points in advance against storms.
First, clean out rain gutters and gutters to improve drainage. If the gutters are clogged with fallen leaves, etc. and the water does not flow, the roads will be flooded.
Second, take measures such as firmly fixing outdoor items that are easily blown away (clothing poles, potted plants, trash cans, etc.) or putting them indoors. Please make sure that signboards are not blown away and vending machines are not toppled.
Third, lock the windows and close the storm shutters, if any, to prevent the glass from breaking in the wind. If you put packing tape on the window glass, it will be able to withstand the wind pressure. If the glass breaks, keep the curtains closed to prevent splinters from scattering.
