2015 Hurricane Preparedness Tips

 

On Thursday September 3, 2015 Ms. Philcher Grant and Mrs Nikita Mullings from the Grand Bahama Power Company spoke to our joint club meeting with the Rotary Club of Lucaya on hurricane preparedness and the role GBPC plays before, during and after severe weather conditions. They also advise residents to decide where they would go if ordered to evacuate, have cash on hand, purchase water and non perishable food items, check your disaster supply kit/first aid kit, listen to radio and news forecast, refill prescription, clear yard of debris before the storm approaches. During the storm they advise that residents remain indoors and listen to the radio for weather updates. After the storm stay indoors or remain home and if any damage occur begin repairs to safeguard your home, take pictures of damages for insurance purposes and stay away from all loose, down or dangling power lines.
