         Trim trees to remove leaves and branches that are close to buildings
         Put fuel in the car and park it undercover or up a hill if in a flood area
         Put away or secure outdoor items so they do not blow around or catch fire
         Sandbag doors and drains, if needed
         Close windows and curtains or blinds
         Fill buckets or bathtub with water in case water supply stops
         Check-in with neighbours so you both know you are okay
         Stay home unless you need to leave.
         If you need to leave, turn off electricity (power), gas and water and lock doors
         And remember, do not drive into flood waters
