Are you ready for a storm?
I’ve been doing a bit of work with the Nelson Tasman CDEM Group lately and it reminded me that storms and flooding are New Zealand’s most common emergency events. A lot of the planning and preparation that we do at CDEM Group level is about these more common emergencies as well as ‘big events’ like earthquakes, that occur less often.
We can’t prevent storms, but there are things we can do to reduce their impact. Do trees need to be trimmed? Are gutters clear of leaves and other debris? What would we do if those powerlines came down across the driveway? Do you know your neighbours?
Here are some useful links to help you prepare for an emergency:
