​Floods are fortuitous situations that we don’t have any control of. Flooding is purely incidental and happens during typhoons and hurricanes. In these situations, the public is reminded to stay safe and dry and evacuate if there is a need to reduce the harm that it can cause to people. 

Flooding can happen anytime and anywhere mainly in lowland areas. The government encourages people to know the safety precautions during the occurrence. To know more about it, here are things to remember:
Restock an Emergency Kit
Anything bad can happen, so it’s better to always be ready. If you know that there is an upcoming typhoon or hurricane, start preparing your emergency kit. Do not wait for the situation get severe before taking action.This way, you would still be able to know items you are lacking or other materials you need to include in the kit. 

Be In The Know
It pays to be in the know when it comes to developing news about the weather. Be updated with the information and the progress of a typhoon or hurricane. This will help you determine if you need to prepare further and ready your family members as well as your pets for evacuation. 

Turn Off Your Home’s Electric Appliances
Floods can also cause a fire. The flood water can reach plugged-in electric appliances and cause them to short circuit hence the fire. If the areas going to your place are full of water, it would be hard for the firefighters to rescue or respond to the burning. 

As a safety precaution, unplug all electric devices in the presence of flood or high water. Turn off the main power switch to prevent dangers like fire and explosions. Considering these options shall safeguard your home from more damage.

Prepare Your Home and Necessary Documents
If your home has flood insurance, you better secure all pertinent insurance documents for your future claims. By doing this, your insurance company could grant you the money needed for your home’s recovery. Securing your other files is also advisable, so you do not have recurring problems in the long run.
