Measures before a typhoon approaches Prepare for a storm
The scary thing about typhoon storms is that when it 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. At shops, etc., please check to make sure that signs are not blown away or vending machines are knocked over.
The third item was blown away by the storm, so lock the windows and close the shutters if there are any to prevent the glass from breaking. 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.
