How to prepare for storm season

What to do before storm season?

In Queensland the storm season starts late September through to the end of February / early March. Preparation before the storm season should include:

Trim your trees and clear the yard of rubbish.
Ensure your gutters are clean and downpipes are not blocked.
Check your roof for any loose tiles or sheeting which has missing screws.
Check your boat is moored securely or protected on land.
Consider protection for your skylight from external damage (e.g. wire mesh).
Check your home insurance is current and adequate.
Prepare an emergency kit with emergency telephone numbers including SES hotline 132 500, portable radio, torch, spare batteries, first aid kit, candles, matches, strong plastic bag for clothing / valuables, plastic sheets, timber strips, hammers and nails for temporary repairs.

What to do as a storm approaches?

Listen to a local radio station for the status of the storm.
Shelter and secure pets and put loose garden furniture and toys inside.
Park your vehicle under solid shelter or cover with firmly tied tarpaulins / blankets.
Secure all external doors and windows and draw curtains.
Keep an emergency kit handy.
Disconnect all electrical items like external television / radio aerials and computer modems.

What to do when a storm hits?

Listen to the radio for severe storm updates.
Stay inside and shelter well clear of windows, doors and skylights.
If the building starts to break up, shelter in the strongest part (cellar, internal room, hallway or built-in wardrobe) under a mattress, doona or a strong table or bench.
If driving, stop clear of trees, power lines and streams. Do not drive through flooded causeways.
Don’t use a fixed telephone during a severe storm due to lighting.

What to do after a storm?

Where required call 132 500 for SES assistance.
For emergency or life threatening medical assistance call 000.
For assistance with less serious medical problems call 13HEALTH.
Cover structural property with plastic sheeting and nail on wood strips.
Beware of fallen powerlines and trees, damaged buildings and flooded water courses.

For powerlines damage telephone Energex on 13 19 62.

If your property is undamaged check on your neighbours in case they require assistance.
